Looking good Damagewagon!!!!!

I just passed my Ham technician test today (took me two tries, DOH!!!) now the waiting game to see when I get my license and call sign on the FCC site.

I also applied for a GMRS license just in case the Ham doesn't go through in time, that way I can at least communicate somehow!!!

Do you know whether your VEC was ARRL or Laurel? ARRL takes about a week I think, Laurel is next business day. Either way it won't take long. My GRMS call was assigned in about 30 mins.

Regardless, you'll have comms in time for Moab, and we're actually using channels that you'll be able to use without GMRS license (FRS combined channels).

For my Ham, the VECs offered WCARS (next business day) or ARRL (which they said will probably take 17+ days); I tried the WCARS test and failed but, I passed the ARRL test!

Cool, never heard of that one. I doubt it will take that long for ARRL but I guess we'll see.
