Technician exam question T1C07
Subelement T1, COMMISSION’S RULES· Group T1C · 47 CFR §97.21, 1.949
How long before the expiration date may an amateur radio license renewal be requested?
- A.30 days
- B.90 days (correct answer)
- C.6 months
- D.1 year
WhyAn amateur radio license renewal may be requested up to 90 days before the expiration date. §97.21 and the FCC's general Part 1 renewal rule (§1.949) allow a license renewal application to be filed up to 90 days before the license's expiration date, answer B. Filing earlier than that window opens (choices C and D) isn't accepted, and waiting until the last 30 days (choice A) cuts it closer than necessary, though the rule's actual window opens at 90 days out.
