Step 3.
If you are having problems with any part of the study materials, e-mail us and we can assign an ‘Elmer’ to you to help you with questions about getting your Amateur License.
You can also join the club e-mail list and ask questions on the club’s e-mail list. E-mail us and ask to join the e-mail list.
Then once you are a member of the list, simply post any questions there and you should get your questions answered there.

Once you feel comfortable with taking the sample tests and you have had all of your questions concerning the test materials answered, go take the test.
