    TW> Checket out Roy. YOU can operate as soon as the Passing of the exam   
    TW> is Registered with the FCC by the Examiner, which can be done over   
    TW> the internet. If the timing is just right(IF the examiner submits the   
    TW> data to the FCC after the session) Some have found their name in the   
    TW> FCC data base in two days. The licence itself takes two weeks or so   
    TW> to arrive.   
      
    TW> So picking the Nits it is effectively walking out of the exam with a   
    TW> licence. Yuo jsut have to hold off until it is in the FCC data base   
    TW> before transmitting. BUT you are Efectively Licenced
