I'm a VE (that's "volunteer examiner") and we run regular testing sessions here in Silicon Valley twice a month. Almost everybody who comes in to take the technician test passes - even little kids :-) Bob WU6V I'm also a VE. In addition, I teach the Tech and General classes. It typically takes 30 hours of study for Tech, and an additional 30 hours of study for General. Extra is about 60 additional hours of study, but I don't teach those because the class would run ~8 weeks and lugging gear back and forth is no fun! -Steve
