You will get an email from the FCC telling you your license is approved and a link for you to pay your $35. It should only take a few days as long as the VE submits everything electronically. Double check your spam folders too. Now you will have so many other squirrels to chase with your amateur license. Tech gives you AM, single side band, CW (morse code) and digital mode privileges on 10m. You also get CW privileges on 15m, 40m, and 80m. There is plenty to do with the 2m, 1.25m, and 70cm bands. You might end up enjoying talking to the space station when it passes over. It took 3 weeks for my technician and three weeks for my general since my local VE is stuck in the Stone Age and mails everything through USPS. Quote
WRYZ926 Posted just now Report Posted just now PS: Getting your general opens up all of the HF bands if you are interested. The general test is not hard, especially if you start studying now. Quote
