The Clearwater Amateur Radio Society is proud to announce their affiliation with the Laurel-VEC. All exam sessions conducted by Laurel-VEC sponsored VE Teams are FREE. Monthly testing sessions are held at the Clearwater Fire Training Facility, 1716 North Belcher Road, Clearwater. The entrance is located behind Station 48. Testing is on the second Monday of every month. Sessions begin at 7:15 P.M. and will end no later than 9:30 P.M. Please bring a photo ID, your original and 1 (one) copy of your license, any certificates of successful completion (CSCEs) or other document that you will using to show element credit. Scratch paper, pens, and pencils will be provided. You may bring a calculator. However, if you bring your own calculator and it is a programmable calculator it must be un-programmed. In other words, the memory must be cleared. Blackberries, Palm Pilots, or other devices that have a calculator function are never permitted. Retesting at the same session is at the discretion of the VE Team. The team will make their decision based on several factors which include but are not limited to the time and test materials available, the number of applicants being processed, the number of VE’s available and how badly you failed the previous exam.
