ARLB009 Revised question pools now available

The National Conference of Volunteer Examiner Coordinators Question
Pool Committee has released revised Amateur Radio examination
question pools into the public domain. The revised questions,
covering the new Elements 2, 3 and 4 that become effective April 15,
2000, now are available on the ARRL web site at http://www.arrl.org.

The QPC anticipates that the Element 4 question pool will remain
valid until June 30, 2002, the Element 3 question pool until June
30, 2003, and the Element 3 question pool until June 30, 2004.

QPC Chairman Ray Adams, W4CPA, says the five-digit numbering system
used in past question pools continues to be used in the new question
pools.  Graphics have been integrated. Minor revisions still are
possible.

Current Novice, Technician, Advanced and Amateur Extra graphic
sheets remain available and valid. Examinations for the new Elements
2 and 3 will contain 35 questions; examinations for the new Element
4 contain 50 questions.
