I have watch both videos and I am still a little confused on how to get a license. I want to get one and just a need a little help getting it. It talked about paying someone to get it for me, and I want to know how much and who to contact but. I might be able to do it by myself but I want to have a backup plain
Thanks

Hi Nathan,
We agree, the process can be a little confusing. Our advice and best backup plan is to work with Bill Ruck, FCC expert. His email is: [email protected]. His fee is very modest and does an excellent job. The cost to work I believe is still ~$150. If you have any other questions, feel free to let us know.
Part II seems to cut off early. Where’d the rest of the video go? Thanks for posting this, I’d love to hear a little more discussion on how block 24 and up is now at risk of auction. That’s the “volunteer” auction that’s being proposed correct?
Are foreigners alowed to get a license by the FCC. If so, can I just open the FCC website and fill up the application form?
Thank you Inawait yupr reply.
So far trying to do the online form in safari is a nightmare. Trying firefox at this point.
FCC uses a java app that is less than mac friendly.
What’s the radio code for 470 to 691mhz?
