Yeah same here...even though I left her my cell phone number she called the house and left a message that was too late to return by the time I got home from work (go figure). I just expect some lame arse excuse on Tony's behalf.

I checked last night and still no call sign. However this A.M. mine was posted:

KE7NCM

 

[rusty_tlc]

I got a call yesterday, seems the VEC's miscounted and I didn't pass General.
Bruce told me I could re-take general Sat at no charge.

Where did you look for the update, I checked several places and nothing for me yet. So I'm not sure if I looked in the right place.

I used the ARRL site.


Also...I looked again at the green form I received after the test and it states I should get the Technician's license with HF privledges by how the VEC marked it...really strange they list: Technician, then Technician HF, then General then Extra on my form! But the FCC states Technician on my approved license.

 

[locrwln1]

Well, still nothing for me.

That would work since I'll be taking the test at 9:00AM. We'll see how motivated I am.
