One Form Multiple Clubs

Amateur radio is a great hobby. One amateur radio entity is giving applicants the maximum choice of location, date and time and is making it easier for applicants to choose exams that are convenient to them.

The following VE teams have joined in this endeavor

  • Five County VE Team (FCVET)
  • Central Carolina VE Team ((CENCAR)
  • Raleigh Amateur Radio Society VE Team (RARS)
  • Richmond County Amateur Radio Club VE Team (RCVET)

Amateur radio clubs involved in the common form includes South Wake Amateur Radio Club, Johnston Amateur Radio Socirty, Raleigh Amateur Radio Society and the Richmond County Amateur Radio Club.

The teams involved had noticed applicants coming all the way from boarder cities in Virginia, Wilmington, and South Carolina,

This cooperation among the groups is a win win for amateur radio and the applicants. All the groups offer no charge amateur radio exams through Laurel VEC
