The National Conference of Volunteer Examiner Coordinators (NCVEC)
Question Pool Committee (QPC)  has released the 2019 - 2023 FCC Element
3 General Class Question Pool into the public domain. The 2019 - 2023
General Class (Element 3) Question Pool is available in Word, ASCII
text, and PDF versions. The new Question Pool is effective for Element
3 exams administered on or after July 1, 2019.

The Question Pool Committee also released on January 6 a revised
diagram Figure G7-1 (PDF) (JPG), as part of the new Element 3 Question
Pool.

You can download these at www.ncvec.org

- Thanks to NCVEC Question Pool Committee

***

Note: On The Thunderbolt BBS, in the ham radio license exams file
area, only the PDF versions are noted.

If there are changes between now and July 1, 2019 (when the new pool
takes effect), they will be updated accordingly. In the 12 years I've
been a Volunteer Examiner, I've yet to see a pool that was released
by the NCVEC *NOT* have to have changes, corrections, etc. I would
think that by April, 2019, the final version of the new General Class
Question Pool and the Schematic Diagram, would be in place.

The 2015GEN.PDF (Question Pool), and 2015GENG.PDF (Schematic) files
will be REMOVED from the BBS on July 1, 2019, as they will no longer
be valid.

The NCVEC Question Pool Committee will then invite comments, submissions,
changes, etc. from Amateur Extra Class Licensees, to the Amateur Extra
Class Question Pool, set for release in January, 2020 -- taking effect
on July 1, 2020. Then, the pool updates "take the year (2021) off"...with
the cycle beginning again with the Technician Class Question Pool in 2022.
