WWW.QRZ.COM has posted a copy from their archives of their very first CD
ROM product on their web page, as originally published in 1993. This data
includes licensees from 1983 to 1993. A printout of such a listing from this
CD ROM, showing a Technician license effective/begin date prior to 3/21/87 is
acceptable. |
| A Radio Amateur Callbook listing may be acceptable as
proof for element 3 credit (must include the year of
publication reference, if not printed on the page). A listing showing the
class of "Technician" with a publication date of 1987 or earlier is valid for
lifetime General written test credit. |
| An FCC-issued License Verification Letter indicating
that the applicant was licensed as a Technician licensee prior to March 21,
1987. To request such a letter, write to FCC, ATTN: Amateur Section, 1270
Fairfield Rd, Gettysburg, PA 17325 (or fax 717-338-2696) |
| $ The Radio Amateur Callbook company will, for a $10
fee, provide a notarized "Proof of Licensing" document which (if it shows the
appropriate information per above) will serve your credit-proof requirements.
The Callbook only began listing the class of licensee in the Fall 1967 and
later Callbooks. Any Callbook published before the Fall of 1967 is not useful
to prove that someone was a Technician licensee. For more information contact:
