Re: Ham license exams

You are required by law to keep that address current otherwise you risk having your license revoked :) it's on the test.

Point being, when I was in the military, I moved many times but kept my home of record as my license address. It would have been a waste of time to try to keep updating my address.

Assuming they live at the address listed in the FCC database...

Re: Ham license exams

If you know the person's name and state you can look it up at ARRL

Of course it works the other way around too, if they know your callsign they can find out who you are and where you live.

Locate hams in your neighborhood.

Re: Ham license exams

Sorry for the delay folks, no laptop here and my phone doesn't like to load the forums.

We are on like Donkey Kong for testing tomorrow. Noon in skybox 207.

Bring $15 cash, your photo ID and your FCC Registration Number (get it at wireless.fcc.gov).
