Question
What proves that the FCC has issued an operator/primary license grant?
Answer Options
- A) A printed copy of the certificate of successful completion of examination
- B) An email notification from the NCVEC granting the license
- C) The license appears in the FCC ULS database
- D) All these choices are correct
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
Your official, legal proof of licensing is when your operator/primary station license grant appears in the FCC Universal Licensing System (ULS) database. This electronic entry is the official document that grants you the authority to operate.
After passing an exam, the Certificate of Successful Completion of Examination (CSCE) is only temporary proof that you passed. You are legally authorized to transmit only once your call sign and license class are officially reflected in the publicly searchable ULS database.
