The Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club sponsors seven VE sessions a year. At these sessions, license exams for all classes of Amateur Radio licenses are given. This includes code exams. The sessions are held on the second Saturday of every odd month at 8:30 A.M. and in conjunction with the club's annual Hamfest in August.
