So, Rick, will I need to schedule my TS-990 "Check ride" with the FCC or the 
FAA?

Terry, W0FM


I don't know if this is true or not, but I hear there is a "simulator" being 
developed by Kenwood.  Sort of like an airliner simulator.  Before you are 
"authorized" or "certified" to sit at the controls of a 990 on the air you have 
to take a class and spend time in the simulator.  When you graduate you are 
then permitted to buy one and operate.  After major firmware upgrades you might 
have to re-certify.  I also hear that pins will be awarded and will be highly 
prized and worn on your cap, alongside your DXCC Honor Roll pin.  "TS-990 
Certified - level 3" etc.
