This is our upteenth (I don’t know the actual number) annual spring Swapfest. The location is the Cooperative Extension building at 50 West High Street in Ballston Spa. We anticipate getting the doors unlocked at 7:30 AM. We will be using the tables and chairs that are provided in the room already, so you don’t need to bring your own. There is NO ADMISSION FEE to join us. There will be no regular Monday meeting in March.
We will close the Swapfest down at 11:00 AM so that we can set up for the exam session which will start at Noon. Please pre register for the test session at hamstudy.org. At that site you will provide your necessary information needed to take the test such as callsign, FRN number and address. If you do not have a FRN number (meaning that most likely this is the first time you are attempting to test, and do not have a ham license already) the website will walk you through the process of getting one. FRN is short for Federal Registry Number, and is issued by the FCC.
