    I heard some European country, to get Amateur Radio license , all you need is to apply online. that is good idea. it can reduce the cost of licensing.

    If this were to happen, I wonder how long it would take the malcontents to make a mess of commercial radio services, not to mention the amateur service.

    By the sounds of certain 75, 40 and 20 meter freqs, I believe we wouldn't have anything to lose. Of course I don't mean that. It's just pitiful to hear the language used and all the antics. Sounds remarkably similar to 11 meters. Of course China Town reminds me of China. Go figure.

    It appears that the licensing service is one of the things that will cease operations. That means people who pass the exams will have to wait to get their license until things start up again. Glad I already have my license.

    What would be any different than the way they are operating now? It seems very limited to me.

    "One (1) employee on detail to another agency will be retained to perform national security functions instrumental in the discharge of the President’s constitutional
    power. This is a full-time employee." Well, now I really want to know what this guy does...... He does absolutely nothing !!!!

    Are you seriously suggesting that some group of "malcontents" will mess radio up? Do you really think that the FCC has anything to do with the day to day operation of radio stations?? That would be an incredible stretch ............What kind of "mess" are you envisioning?

    Yeah, Here in the UK once you pass your exam, you just enter you candidate number on the Ofcom site and you can choose your callsign. No waiting required :D.
