HI all,
Please, can we stop with the 73's?
We're suppose to be hams here, not chicken banders.
I'm not alone, when it comes to that, either.
A very well known ham, nationally, has this pet peeve as well, and I also do.
This is not cb, this is ham radio, and if you're gonna be a ham, talk the talk!
73,
Trippy, ac8s

  Subject: License Renewal?


  Hi Howard,

  This is Howard #3.

  About 4 years ago I renewed my license on the FCC website and I didn't =
  have=20
  any trouble.  There site is very accessible.

  Before you can use their Universal Licensing System, you need to get an =
  ID=20
  number from them.  This also can be done online and the number will be=20
  e-mailed to you immediately.

  If you are reasonably proficient at filling out forms online, this whole =

  process can be completed in less than half an hour at most.

  On a scale of 1 (easy) to 10 (hard) this exercise  is about a 3 in my=20
  opinion.

  The hardest thing is to figure out what website to go to.

  If anyone is interested, I will look up the address and post it here.

  If you are able to get an Amateur license than you are smart enough to =
  renew=20
  it independently.

  73's
