P.L.O.T.A - aka "Parking Lots on the Air"
One thing we've found over years of doing VE exams, is that only a small percentage of people that come take an exam are ever heard from again, regardless if they pass. This can be due to a number of factors, including things like mic fright, problems/frustration with getting on the air, setting up new gear, and more.
As such, Phil-Mont has an outreach program called PLOTA, or "Parking Lots on the Air". After potential licensees take their test, they can come out and get right on the air in the parking lot of the testing location!
We'll help you break your mic fright, answer any questions you may have, and give you a short crash course on typical repeater/radio usage.
(There is no cost for this service, but availability is based on availability of volunteers.)
