Re: Ham Call Signs In Profile

That is strange. That username has done similar things elsewhere to others. Just bot posting identical things with that link at the bottom. Don't click that link...

One of me posting is plenty.

No thanks.
No, you don't. You the mailing address I told the feds where I can receive mail... I most certainly do not live at the post office.

FCC says the listed address must be where you are transmitting from. CoC #4. They can and have jerked licenses because of it.
Sorry for the late reply - things have been busy.

Re: having to "transmit" from the location on your license.. You're quite simply wrong, or saying something you believe but is not correct.

It used to be, waaaay up until the middle 60's, that you either had to be where your license locationwas, or you had to transmit a notice that you were either mobile or portable in "X" call district. That went away when the feds dropped additional station licenses in the mid 60's. You used to could have more than one call sign, associated with a different location where you would be transmitting, but all thst was dropped over 50 years ago. Today, you do not have to say where you are if you aren't transmitting from your home station, and there are no requirements that you notify the FCC if your stationlicense address changes, as long as you still receive mail at your mailing address!
Gotcha. I had a guy in his 60's teaching my class, so who knows if he was going off of old info. Either way, no thanks.

The only way that I have passed my Tech and General are by using the practice tests on QRZ.com. Keep taking the test over and over until you can consistently get a 80%, and you should do fine on the test. It won't teach you what you need to know, but it will help you pass the test.

FCC license data is public information. If I know your call sign, I know your name and home address.

No thanks.
