Tech Class at MEMA

13 people, from MEMA and associated agencies, took the Technician’s License class that was held at MEMA in Reisterstown, September 29 & 30, with testing October 01, 2015.

Bill Clark, N3DOU & Elizabeth Gibbs, W3HIH presented the 2 –day Tech Class.

The testing session was put on by a group of 7 VE’s, gathered with the help of Bob Rose (our Laurel VEC Coordinator for Region 2 &3).

12 of the 13 test takers passed the Tech Test, and now have their Ham Radio call signs. Congratulations to all who participated!mema_01

We used a software program, for the first time, to record data required by the FCC in order to submit the test results. That is a challenge that we will continue to perfect.
