If the FCC decides to do away with all paper licenses, I assume they will need to revisit many of their rules, and not just for the Amateur Service. Unless, of course, they will allow us to receive licenses by PDF, and print them out ourselves. If the FCC’s proof of licensure is inclusion in the ULS database, It sounds like all they should need (or want) at the remote station is a callsign of each remote operator and the URL to the ULS. They would need to query the ULS to see if the license is valid anyway. Thanks for the info, Chris! Please keep us updated. ’73 de JIM N2ZZ From: Kermit Carlson [mailto:w9xa@yahoo.com] Sent: Saturday, November 15, 2014 9:05 PM To: Chris Imlay; James F.

It is a rule which, Cross suggests, is not often followed in these new commercial remote control station contexts. More on this shortly. 73, Chris W3KD Sent from my iPhone On Nov 8, 2014, at 5:39 PM, James F.
