May Events

It’s almost the unofficial beginning of summer, and it’s hard to believe we are already in the month of May. I hope you find many interesting ham radio related activities to fill your calendar this month.

Please be sure to let me know if there are any activities that you would like me to include in this monthly events update.

Until next month….

Amateur Radio License Exam Session
Oak Park Heights MN 55082-6482

EXAM SESSION

04/26/2012
Sponsor: Stillwater ARA

I would like to thank the VEs who worked the April 26th exam session and particularly NØODK & W2FPX who offered to help, when I was finding a need to have VEs who had not been instructors for the recent Tech class. I also want to thank the instructors of that class for another great job. We had 7 students from the class test with us, and 5 were successful in earning their initial license. The 2 who were not successful, were close.
