The FCC is eliminating the regulatory fee to apply for an Amateur Radio vanity call sign. The change will not go into effect, however, until required congressional notice has been given. This will take at least 90 days. As the Commission explained in a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Report a nd Order, and Order ( MD Docket 14-92 and others), released May 21, it’s a matter of simple economics.
