IDENTIFICATION
Two forms of identification are required (one of these can be your current FCC Amateur Radio License, social security card, library card, credit card,   bill, birth certificate etc.) and the other must be a picture ID (driver's license, state id, school id, work id, passport etc). 

Parents of minor children, who think they lack proper picture id should get in contact with the VE coordinator to discuss the ID requirements.

MORSE CODE
There is NO LONGER A CODE REQUIREMENT.  The requirement to demonstrate Morse code proficiency to gain HF privileges officially disappeared from the FCC's Part 97 rules Feb 24, 2007 at 12:01 AM Eastern Time. At the same time, some 200,000 Technician licensees without Morse code exam credit acquired HF privileges equivalent to those available to Novice licensees.

STUDY MATERIALS
The Lake County Amateur Radio Club Volunteer Examiner team highly recommends the ARRL's "Now Your Talking" Examination guide for learning the material that is necessary to pass your Technician exam. It is an excellent guide and will prepare you well for the test. Many of our VE's have used this guide for studying for their exams. You can find the ARRL Study Guides at: http://www.arrl.org/catalog/lm/
