Congrats Curtis on your move. And yes the ULS is accessible. I renewed my
license last year through it once I got my password. Well should be a good
game with the Patriots.

Subject: updating information on-line!
Hi all! you all know I got the vanity call sign, K 6 V F O, last
summer and how jazzed I was about that. We moved to California just
a couple months ago and now, just as of a few minutes ago, I was able
to, quite easily, update my license with my new address, and that is
free with the FCC registration number and their ULS, (universal
licensing system) so speech friendly.
I did it with Window-Eyes and IE10 which works with windows 7, and am
sure it works with all the other screen readers as well, but it got
me to thinking, of how it wasn't that long ago that such was not the
case with us blind folks, to fill out applications as such on-line
was just not only available, it was daunting to the extreme consider
all of what had to be done to modify, let alone apply for the vanity
call sign I did last summer.
So, I am celebrating a couple things; (1) my license update, and (2)
the 49ers advance in the playoffs, though I did route for the Packers
last weekend. I am totally surprised they won that game last evening
in San Francisco, so we'll see whether they play the Falcons or the
Seahawks next week, either in Atlanta or San Francisco.
