FCC Regulatory Fee for Vanity Call Signs to Disappear September 3 ? Access VE Information on the ARRL Website ? ======================================================================== ? FCC Systems Down for Maintenance September 2-8 ? The Federal Communications Commission started an upgrade of its legacy IT systems yesterday at 6 pm EDT. The FCC Universal Licensing System (ULS) and other FCC website public applications will be unavailable from 12:00am on Wednesday, September 2, 2015 through 8:00am on September 8, 2015. On line filings and VEC electronic transmissions will not be accepted during this time. The FCC does not plan to release any official documents during the IT upgrades. ? VECs will not be able to file exam sessions or submit application forms to FCC during this outage. No licenses will be processed, issued or updated until the ULS website is back online. VE Teams will continue to follow normal procedures and should submit their exam sessions to the VEC in a timely manner. ARRL VEC will resume license transmissions to FCC as soon as the systems are available again. ?

You can also review the FCC?s Public Notice on the matter: https://www.fcc.gov/document/fcc-databases-unavailable-filing-deadline-extensions-early-september ? ======================================================================== ? FCC Regulatory Fee for Vanity Call Signs to Disappear September 3 ? The FCC regulatory fee associated with Amateur Radio Vanity call signs is no longer required. ? Beginning Thursday, September 3, 2015, applicants will be able to file all vanity applications (new and renewal) without having to pay a regulatory fee.? FCC decided earlier this year to eliminate the regulatory fee component for Amateur Radio vanity call signs because their costs exceed the amount collected in fees. ? However, while the requirement to pay a regulatory fee for vanity call sign applications will end on September 3, prospective vanity applicants now will have to wait until after 8am on September 8 to file an application for an available call sign because of the FCC shut down. ?

Biener" Date: September 16, 2015 at 9:57:50 PM EDT To: "'Walt Murphy'" , "'E Drew Moore'" , "'Richard Sandy'" Subject: TCRA Special Program The Tri-County Radio Association is having a special presentation at our meeting on Monday September 21. Our featured speaker will discuss ladder safety. As some of you know, our President, Nelson DeSousa, fell from a ladder in May breaking both his feet while doing an antenna raising at a club member?s home. He realized afterward that in many regards HAMs are not aware of ladder safety...or at least he wasn't and therefore he thought all HAMs in TCRA and beyond would benefit from such a presentation. The ARRL amateur radio license exams focus on tower safety but most of us can't afford towers and use our houses for antenna placement...which means we have to get on a ladder. Our speaker is Phil Solomon who is a certified instructor in many fields including OSHA requirements and ladder safety. Phil (KD2FGH) is also a HAM and will gear the discussion and presentation with the amateur radio community in mind. Please join us on Monday, September 21, 2015 at 7:30 PM at the Union Elks located at 281 Chestnut Street in Union NJ. Please feel free to share on Facebook, with other clubs and amongst the amateur community. Refreshments will be served. Paul J.

Probably not. In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <14B127CEAC8D1F4285AB6AD7B1F80DBA02F0F1E1@DAGN09a-e6.exg6.exghost.com> There is lots of talk about Microsoft's newest operating system Windows 10 since its release on July 29, 2015. Upgrading your personal machine at home is one thing. But is it time to upgrade your entire company? Probably not. Below is a list of software that are NOT COMPATIBLE with Windows 10 at this time: * Sage products * Blackbaud products including Raiser's Edge * FileMaker Server 14 and earlier * FileMaker Pro 13 and earlier (v14 is deemed compatible with known errors) * OnScreen Takeoff versions earlier than v.3.93 (v.3.93 is compatible) * AutoCad 2014 and earlier (2015 is supported with known errors) * Quickbooks 2014 and earlier (2015 is deemed compatible with known errors) Many enterprise-grade software products are not yet fully compatible with Windows 10. Microsoft has not yet released the full version and most software manufacturers need to test against the full version before they can certify full compatibility. Upgrading at this time may lead to issues with software that staff need to perform their daily work. This can result in downtime, performance issues and potential data issues depending on how the software reacts to Windows 10. Even after a company fully certifies compatibility with Windows 10 it may be a good idea to wait until all the bugs are worked out.
