>> Today on the 40 meter round-table I mentioned the awesome web site I'm
>> using to prepare for the extra class license test that I plan to take
>> at Dayton.
>> Tom asked me to post the info on here for those who may need such a
>> resource.  The site is:
>>
>> http://www.hamtestonline.com
>>
>> First, it's wonderfully accessible.  They give you questions and 4
>> multiple choice answers which you choose by means of radio buttons.
>> In the study mode, they also provide a paragraph or so on a particular
>> subject before they start asking you questions on it as well as links
>> to additional info should you care to explore a subjectg further.
>> there is also a practice exam mode where you can take simulated exams
>> just like the ones administered by the VEC.  As you answer these
>> questions, you're told whether or not you're correct and if not, the
>> correct answer is also given.
>>
>> You do have to subscribe to gain access to all the material.  For the
>> extra, it's $34 for a 2-year subscription so you have plenty of time
>> to prepare for a test.  They also update the question pools when they
>> change so you can stay right on top of things.
>>
>> There are more than 700 questions in the extra pool and, of course,
>> you have no idea which 50 you will have to answer so it's best to get
>> familiar with all of them.  I had feared this would be a tedious
>> process indeed but to my surprise and delight, I found it was great
>> fun.  The learning and reinforcement keeps you awake and involved.
>>
>> If you check it out, be sure to read the FAQ and study tips sections.
>> lots
>> of good and useful stuff there.  I have found this to be a first-rate
>> resource.  73,  lou WA3MIX
