First Phone?
Bruce,
Just go enter your 1st telegraph in the data base, and if it is valid, it will be accepted. This is the advice I got and followed from a nice lady in Gettysburg about 3 years ago when my GROL lifetime disappeared from the site. Enter your number without any hyphens. Doug K7ABX "Bruce in Alaska" wrote in message ... In article k.net, Rick wrote: Sorry, Bruce ... if your license isn't in the database it doesn't exist. Other people I know who hold 1st telegraph are in it, I am in it, Larry isn't. You are shown to hold a GROL that was converted in 2001, as far as the FCC is concerned that is the extent of your commercial licensing. And besides the GROL or a restricted phone which licenses don't expire? That just isn't the case. My First Telegraph is here on the wall and is a Lifetime Permit. Says so right on it, in the Experation Date field is printed "Lifetime". It was Issued by the Portland Field Office on the same date as my Lifetime GROL. (Jan. 2, 1985) I just got off the phone with an old buddy back at HQ, who told me that it is still valid, and if anyone tells me otherwise they are just "Full of it". So if the my former employer, (FCC) says it's good, I see no reason to not believe them. I suspect that there are a bunch of these Telegraph tickets that are like mine, and aren't in the DataBase, as the FCC had a terrible habit of loosing track of stuff, before the Operator Licensing was centralized, back in Gettysburg, PA. in the late 80's.
