WRAK968 Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 I have a subject requesting access to a repeater. One thing I do is varify the call before sending out the access codes. Today the FCC ULS doesn't seem to be working for me and I cant figure out why. It refuses to look up names, calls, or FRN. At first I thought the user made up the call, however upon seeing proof that the call is real I tried again with my call on the ULS and it says the call does not exist. Is anyone else having this issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweiss3 Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 It is finding my call signs, but it won't pull up the data when you click on it. I wonder if it's under maintenance. I just saw an active alert for the system: "The FCC is currently experiencing an issue with downloading authorizations using Google Chrome........ use Firefox at this time" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just saw an active alert for the system: "The FCC is currently experiencing an issue with downloading authorizations using Google Chrome........ use Firefox at this time"yep Im using firefox and it just returns "The term doesnt exist" Little odd but I guess theres maintenance issues so at least I know its not me.

MacJack Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 Based on the FCC site down, I checked to see if the fee was being changed to $35 for GMRS... No it did not change yet...Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrun Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 I can confirm that I just performed a successful search on the ULS using Safari for iOS. MichaelWRHS965KE8PLM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrun Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Still not working for me. This is what I get when doing a search, Does this for both lower-case and upper-case I searched for your call sign using main search page and received the same results as you. Then I performed the search from the advanced search page and had success. See below. MichaelWRHS965KE8PLM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRAK968 Posted February 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Strange, I think they may be doing stuff with the database and thats causing the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERG900 Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 They were down for maintenance in the wee-hours last night. I waited for it to go back up and snuck in my application for a ham vanity callsign before they start charging for it. Ka-ching!

tweiss3 Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 I was searching the ULS today, and its up in short spurts. Probably a huge system update they are working through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
