Following Mark’s video technician training class class, we had a VE session at Buckhall Volunteer Fired department. We had 23 candidates and everyone got at least one new license.
We have 16 new Techs, 3 new Generals and 4 new extras. Three of the new Techs took the General unsuccessfully.
I think 23 is probably a record for an OVH VE session. We had so many candidates that we could not fit them into the training room at Buckhall that we use for our OVH meeting. We had to put two overflow tables in an adjacent room where we did the grading.
We had lots of help from our OVH VEs. We had Al, KB4BHB, Byron, AK4XR, Luther, WA3FMO, Steve (OGRE), N4OGR, Tony, KM4KLR, Kevin, KX4KU, Wayne , N7QLK, Jeff , KM4FTK and John KG4NXT.
Theresa , KG4TVM , made handouts including a OVH club application and she also took a few pictures which are featured here.
Thanks for running the Exams. I was go excited to pass my technician exam and meet some of the folks. I look forward to joining The ole Virginia hams.
Congratulations Tim Lang, we look forward to hearing you on the air.
Adding my thanks for a well-run session. The VE’s handled the larger than expected number of candidates easily. Glad to see so many new Techs joining the hobby. I might just come to your next meeting……..
