ARRL HAMCON Colorado 2025 Rocky Mountain Division

Taking an exam to get or upgrade your Amateur Radio License could not be easier during Colorado HamCon 2025. The Western Colorado Amateur Radio Club will be facilitating testing from 9:00 am to 12:00 Noon. Testing will be held at the Grand Junction, CO DoubleTree on Horizon Drive in the Telluride Room.

It's a simple 2 step process:

1. Register to take your via HamStudy.org. The registration Button can be found at the bottom of this page.
2. Arrive at the test location anytime from 9:00 to 11:15 with your photo ID, blank scratch paper (optional), calculator (optional), current license, FRN and the $15.00 cash exam fee. If you don't have a FRN because of the government shut-dow, that's ok. We can still perform your test.

KEY TO SUCESS: Arrive fully prepared for a ham radio test! Practice! Be sure you are consistently scoring above an 85% on practice tests. We can't guarantee it, but if consistently score over 85% you should pass the actual test with flying colors. Know the material! You should be able to complete the exam within 30 minutes. Most questions are short and simple concepts.
