Silly question..... with 12+ week delays etc, and thinking of the
phone bills generated by having to phone ARRL, VEC etc for permission
before phoning the FCC, would it be worthwhile for US amateurs, VECs and
the ARRL to raise funds for a modest PC with a moderately big disc and
volunteer-written software, and then *GIVE* it to the FCC as a donation ?

Happy amateurs,

Round here, the control ops are pretty strict about this use
of the autopatch. When the rule changed, they said: * We will
continue to require anchovies on any pizza ordered over the
autopatch*. (Still havent heard the first pie get ordered).

AFTER THE EXAM - HOW LONG WILL IT BE BEFORE MY LICENSE ARRIVES?
If you've recently passed your initial examination for an
Amateur Radio license, or if you've just upgraded, please
accept our warmest congratulations! Now that you've
passed the test, receiving your license in the mail is the
next step.
The FCCs current license processing time is at
90 days. In addition, there will be extra time required
within the volunteer examiner system of two weeks
or so allowing your VE Team and VEC (if for Technician class
or higher) time to process your application, your license
might not arrive for up to 12 to 14 weeks.
To keep your wait for that new license or upgrade as
short as possible, we are taking the following steps to give
you the fastest possible service.
We have begun providing our VE Teams with express OVERNIGHT
mailers for the return of applications from ARRL/VEC exam
sessions to us at the VEC--and we at the VEC have begun
sending our daily packages to the FCCs Licensing Facility
via an express OVERNIGHT service.
We are also encouraging our VEs, and imposing
the same emphasis upon ourselves, to process examination
packages as quickly as possible to expedite your license.
Having implemented the above procedures, the ARRL/VEC
wants your wait for your new license to be as short as
possible.
If you have any other suggestions about the program, or
services we provide, please feel free to contact us.
You can help keep the processing time as short as possible
by ALWAYS bringing all ORIGINAL CSCEs (plus copies of them) and
your ORIGINAL FCC license (and a copy), plus your identification
documents (photo-ID emphasized), to every test session you attend.
THINGS TO BRING TO THE EXAMINATION
Be prepared to bring the following items with you to VEC
examinations: Your original current FCC-issued Amateur
Radio license (and a copy of it)--if you are licensed; Any
original Written or Code Element credit documents (CSCEs)
which are currently valid; Two forms of identification
(e.g., a photo-ID or drivers license and another item
indicating your current name and address); A calculator (if
necessary); A pen and two pencils; and, the applicable
examination test fee ($5.75 for 1994 test sessions).
TECHNICIAN CLASS GRANDFATHER CREDIT
If you hold a Technician class license which was issued
prior to 3/21/87, you are not required to take the Element
3B (General class written) examination if you can provide a
copy of your FCC-license dated before that date. If your
licensed has since been renewed, and if you don't have a
copy of the pre-3/21/87 license, you must seek a
verification letter from the FCC.
To do so, write to FCC, 1270 Fairfield Rd, Gettysburg PA
17325-7245 and request a letter of "Verification of Technician
License Held Prior to 3/21/87"--verifying that you were licensed
as a Technician class licensee before that date (the date the
Technician Question Pool was split off from the General class
Question Pool -- March 21, 1987). After you receive that letter
from the FCC, bring it to the test session with you in order
to claim your deserved credit.
LOST LICENSES
If you have lost your license, be aware that VECs are not
permitted to submit any upgrades to the FCC without a copy of your
current license attached to the 610 form. In order to
expedite your upgrade, you must write the FCC and request a
replacement license. Since that can take several weeks to
arrive, we recommend that you also request a Form 1010-B
verification letter from the FCC which will arrive in a
couple of weeks--and is legally binding license document.
You may use that form as a license until your Form-660
license arrives. The original and a copy of Form 1010-B
must be brought to the test session verifying that you are
currently licensed--the copy of which will be attached to
your upgrade application (in lieu of an actual Form-660
license copy). To request the Form 1010-B Verification
Letter, write to: FCC, 1270 Fairfield Rd, Gettysburg PA
17325-7245; indicating that you lost your license and that
you are requesting that a replacement license be issued to
you--also be sure to request that they send you a Form 1010-
B Verification Letter verifying that you are licensed.
ACCOMMODATIONS FOR THE HANDICAPPED OR DISABLED
The FCC requires that the administering VEs must accommodate
an examinee whose physical disabilities require a special
examination procedure. To do so, the administering VEs may
require a physician's statement indicating the nature of the
disability before determining which, if any, special
accommodative procedures must be used.
The VEs may accommodate handicapped/disabled examinees by
administering the examination at a place convenient and
comfortable for the examinee--even at bedside; for the
hearing impaired the Morse code may be sent using flashing
lights or a vibrating surface; for the visually impaired,
VEs may read or write for the examinee; where warranted, the
VEs may pause the Morse code message after each
sentence/phrase, or each word, or even after each character
to allow the examinee additional time to absorb and
interpret what was sent--also the VEs may substitute a
sending test for a receiving test where the examinee's
handicap warrants.
VE Teams may need advanced notice in order to provide the
necessary accommodations to examinees who require them. If
you will require accommodations, please contact the VE Team in
advance to advise them of your needs.
EXEMPTION OF THE 13/20 WPM MORSE CODE REQUIREMENTS
If you are a severely handicapped or disabled individual and
have already passed at least a 5 WPM Morse code examination
(or hold a license which meets that requirement), you may be
eligible for exemption from the 13/20 WPM Morse code
examination requirements. For information and applicable
forms, send a SASE to the ARRL/VEC, 225 Main St, Newington
CT 06111, and request our Handicapped Information Package.
