Pass your Amateur Radio exams!
Ham Exam Helper helps you pass your Ham Radio exams... For Element 1/Morse Code, Element 2/Tech, Element 3/General and Element 4/Extra licence.

V1.1 has 2004 and 2007 General pool - and has no more Morse code...

Since February 23 2007 morse code is not longer a part of the exam and that is the reason why I removed morse code training from this program.
The new 2007 General license pool was also added and this pool will be use in the second half of this year. If plan to have a exam in the first half of 2007 use the 2004 pool.

New Question Pools should also be released soon (12/22/2006), I will update the software as soon as I have the new pools and I will make clear that morse code is not longer required(probably 02/2007).

How to find a good speech voice?

The standard speech voice is not as good as it could be. I don't know any good free voices. If there are any good free voices that compare to my options please let me know and I will post it here.
Here are your options:
1. AT&T Natural Voices speech engine Mike and Crystal
2. Microsoft Streets & Trips 2006 Anna
3. Microsoft Streets & Trips 2007 Anna
4. default voice Sam

Speech Sample Download Link

The AT&T package has a male (Make16) and female (Crystal16) voice and both are very good; Streets & Trips has one very good female (Anna) voice.

On October 19. 2006 HamExamHelper Version 1 was released to the public. The program is for people who want to start Ham Radio or for Hams who want to upgrade their license. The program is for US FCC exams. It runs on Windows 2000 and on Windows XP. It helps with morse code and all the questions from all three question pools are included.
