Subj : Callsign Updates

  Amateur Radio Callsign Update from the FCC as of Jan.  2, 2019. These
are in "sequential" format, and do not necessarily include "vanity
callsigns".

  Data is from the HamData.Com website at www.hamdata.com/fccinfo.html --
so, check that, in case typographical errors are in this message.

  In some regions, all the sequential callsigns have been issued, so
other callsign groups are being noted as well. The first 2 entries
for regions 0 through 9 are for Technician or General class licensees
(starting with a K), and then for Amateur Extra Class licensees
(starting with an A).

  The regions are noted as per Appendix 2, in Part 97 of the FCC Rules.

NOTE: As per a story in Amateur Radio Newsline Report #2149, the FCC has
now SUSPENDED OPERATION, as of Jan. 3, 2019. Until the partial U.S.
government shutdown is ended, there will be no processing of either
new sequential and vanity callsigns, new licenses, license upgrades,
renewals, etc.

I have sent an email to ARRL/VEC, asking about the status of licensees,
whose licenses expire during the shutdown, or for those who couldn't
renew during the shutdown, before the license lapsed (being expired more
than 2 years). As of late Jan. 8, 2019, I have not yet heard anything
from ARRL/VEC on this...and have no idea if or when, I'll get a response.

Once the shutdown ends, there likely will be quite a backlog of data to
get into the FCC ULS, from the various VEC's. Amateur Radio Operators,
prospective and current, are asked to be patient, due to the delay in
license processing. VE Teams can enter the data from exam sessions, but
can't key it to the FCC until after the shutdown ends. I understand that
some VE Teams are CANCELLING exam sessions until the shutdown ends. When
that will occur is the $64 trillion question.

Lastly, eventually, the FCC will no longer accept Social Security Numbers
on an NCVEC Form 605 -- one will have to obtain an FRN from the FCC CORES
website PRIOR to going to a license exam session...or they will NOT be
able to take the license exam.
