Re: [Repeater-Builder] Question for the group

I found my old General Radiotelephone that was converted to lifetime in 1985.  No record of the old 1st and 2nd Class Radiotelephone, however.

Use "last name, first name" on the search.

Hi Frank:

The First Class Radiotelephone Operator's License was replaced with
the General Radiotelephone Operator's License nearly 20 years ago.
Approximately equivalent to the old 2nd Class license, the GROL is
only needed for aviation, marine, and international public fixed
stations.

These days, one does not need any license to work as a tech at a
broadcast station, radio or TV.  The FCC put the responsibility for
proper operation of a station's transmitter in the hands of the
station licensee, and leaves it up to them to hire competent techs.
This was part of deregulation back during the Reagan Administration.

I'm not aware of any database for commercial licensees, but if there
is one, I'd guess either the FCC, NARTE, ISCET or NRE might likely
post it on the web.

Hope this helps.

73,
Russ

I have a neighbor who works for a cellular carrier, and had the
    
old FCC
  
First Class Radio Telephone license.
First question, is that license still required for techs at tv and
    
radio
  
stations or did the FCC drop the requirement?
Is there a place on the web to search a license database?
They are not listed in the ULS web site.
Thanks
