There is NO Tech Plus test. Only Tech, General and Extra.

But at URL: http://www.arrl.org/FandES/ead/classes.html

It states:
Technician Class

Hams enter the hobby as Technicians by passing a 35-question multiple-choice
examination. No Morse code test is required. The exam covers basic
regulations, operating practices, and electronics theory, with a focus on
VHF and UHF applications.

Technician Class operators are authorized to use all amateur VHF and UHF
frequencies (all frequencies above 50 MHz). Technicians who pass a 5 WPM
Morse code examination are entitled to limited power outputs on certain HF
frequencies. "Technicians with HF" may operate on the 80, 40, and 15 meter
bands using CW, and on the 10 meter band using CW, voice, and digital modes.



Also for freq and power limits -- see URL:

Believe who you want. That only applies to old tech plus licensees.
New Tech's CANNOT operate HF. How many times am I going to have to
explain this???
