ARL test options? (1 Viewer)

[Hayes]

I was thinking about getting set up with a basic 2m radio before Cruise Moab, but I don't seem to have many testing options less than 2 hours away. I figured there would be more exams in a major metro area (Salt Lake City).
Are there testing resources that I'm missing?

That web site will usually find them. Did you look in Ogden and Provo/Orem as well?

Unfortunately that April 1st session is the only SLC option before CM, and it also coincides with me sequestered in a ski lodge in Canada...
I checked the ARRL site for all of Utah.
Oh well. I'll get it figured out after CM.

Buy a 2M radio and take it to CM to listen in (and use in case of an emergency).

Email Steve to see when the next cram class is going to be. He does them on Saturday mornings in the law library at BYU. My brother and I did one of these a few years ago and doing it again would just self study and show up after lunch ready to take the test. Steves email is nv7v@ucares.org. Here is a link that talks about the class. (link)

They also have club meetings (in the same library at BYU I think) on the 3rd Wednesday of each month. Another one of my brothers took the test at one of those meetings after he flaked from the Saturday morning thing I went to.

Check this list out.

Found a session on the list you linked to. Completed and passed the Technician exam today.
Thanks for your help.
