The PCARA is proud to support the only FCC licensing for U.S. amateur operators to be found in this part of Central America. We have a dedicated group of volunteer examiners that graciously give of their time and talents to administer all elements necessary for any grade license.
Testing is usually held once every three months. The test takes place around 9:00 AM on a scheduled Saturday. The date for the next test is usually decided at the preceding test session and will be posted on this web site as well as on the ARRL test center database.
The location for the test will be the PCC Training Center. The PCC training center is located in Balboa, adjacent to the McDonalds complex.
The following items are all you need to bring to a test site:
The club has purchased copies of instructional videotapes from the King Collection which will help you study for the exam. Currently we have every class except General due to the fact they are changing the questions sometime in October. Once the new question bank is out, we will purchase the General video as well. Anyone (club members) wishing to check out one of these videos should contact Sherill (HP1XXS).
