Hehehe! Thanks for all the info. I've already been through that minefield,
have my CORES number, Ships station license and restricted radiotelephone
operator's permit. All of these require only a fee and you have to prove
your ability to navigate endless government bureaucracy. I think I sent the
application for the RTOP in three times before they liked it.

I just found you some more information on the current state of the
FCC's online system. Go read:

The FCC ULS/CORES/TIN/FRN system is a mess. FCC is helping IRS track
down its tax cheats, non-filers, which is what the FRN is all about.

Good luck. You're gonna need it!
