MARINE RADIO LICENCE

Monday 11 Sept 2023 - unfortunately I am unable to Invigilate (supervise) Marine Radio Exams for the next few weeks, starting today 11 Sept 2023.  The rules have changed and I now have to do some exams myself to get re-instated. My apologies for the inconvenience and as soon as I am able to rebook people in, I will let you know.  Regards, Gillian

The steps to obtaining your Short Range Operators Certificate of Proficiency (SROCP - VHF) and Long Range Operators Certificate of Proficiency (LROCP - VHF/MF/HF) licences.

SROCP (VHF)

  1. Read the VHF Operators 2022 Handbook (you can purchase it here)
  2. Do the SROCP revision questions by clicking here
  3. Book your exam time by clicking here and selecting BOOK NOW - make sure you are logged into your Facebook account or the BOOK NOW button won't show up. (If you don't have a Facebook account.....good lord, it's 2023......anyway, if you don't have a Facebook account please contact shop@thenavigationcentre.com.au and we will book you in. We will need your mobile number to do the booking).
  4. Once you have booked your timeslot please send a message through Facebook or email (shop@thenavigationcentre.com.au) with your full name, date of birth, phone number and email address.  We need this information to set up your online exam (you still need to come into our premises to sit the exam). You will have your result at the end of the exam.
  5. Sit your exam at our premises 61 Perkins Street, South Townsville. 
  6. Allow 45 minutes to sit your exam, do a small practical test and be instructed on keeping COVID Safe while on our premises. 
  7. You can sit your exam Monday to Thursday 10am to 3pm and Fridays 10am to 2pm.  Weekends are by prearranged appointment only and do not show up on the booking calendar.  Please contact us directly if you need a weekend appointment.
  8. There are 25 multiple choice questions. 
  9. We can only have one person at a time sit for their exam due to the size of the space we have.
  10. Please bring a tablet or laptop with you when you come for your exam.  You will connect to our Wifi for the exam.
  11. Pay your $125 licence fee on arrival at The Navigation Centre the day of sitting your exam.  This is a one off fee.  There are no ongoing fees.  The SROCP (VHF) Marine Radio Licence is perpetual.
  12. You will know your result at the end of your exam but your physical licence still has to be mailed to you and this could take up to 15 business days (but that's ok because you will already know your result).
  13. Lastly, I will take your photo on the day of your exam so have a good hair day :-)
