Does anybody maintain a website with both of the major VEC test dates,
times, and locations?

The ARRL link helped. I was not aware that they took ALL VECs and put them
on their site.

The W5YI site was not of any use. All they said was to contact the CVE in
your area to find out about exams.

I find it hard to believe from the ARRL site that there isn't a SINGLE W5YI
exam in the whole state of California for the next couple of months.

The ARRL site doesn't usually list any testing but the ARRL testing. Best
thing to do is to find clubs in your area and contact them. They will
usually know who is sponsoring what in their area. There are, after all, 12
VECs and the ARRL and W5YI won't have detail data on some of these. For
example, if you check their websites, you would come away believing that
there is no testing within a hundred miles or more of San Diego. However,
if you do a search for San Diego amateur radio of the web, you will find the
SANDARC and that they are a VEC and that there is a test available nearly
every weekend somewhere in the Sand Diego area.

I don't. Fred was too much of a hardass for paperwork.

Much of the area is well covered by OTHER VECs. For example all exams in
the San Diego area are done by SANDARC. They have an exam somewhere in that
area almost every weekend. So you might try a web search using the city
name that you are interested in combined with the words amateur radio.
