Technician exam question T1A05
Subelement T1, COMMISSION’S RULES· Group T1A · 47 CFR §97.7
What proves that the FCC has issued an operator/primary license grant?
- 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 (correct answer)
- D.All these choices are correct
WhyAn operator/primary license grant is proven by the license's appearance in the FCC's ULS database. §97.7 makes the FCC's own licensing database, the Universal Licensing System (ULS), the authoritative record of who holds a license. If your call sign and grant appear there, you're licensed, answer C. A paper CSCE (choice A) only proves you passed the exam, not that the FCC acted on it, and NCVEC (choice B) administers the volunteer examiner program but doesn't issue licenses, so D is wrong since it depends on A and B both being valid proof.
