Dear FirstName,

Thank you for attending the Nashua Area Radio Club sponsored examination held on LastSession.

"NewClass"!="None"Congratulations on passing your NewClass Class exams! We sincerely hope you enjoy your new license privileges.Callsign Remember, until you receive your initial license you cannot operate as the control operator of any station. With your current license and the original of the CSCE issued to you, you may immediately begin operating with your newly earned privileges. "NewClass"="Technician Plus""OldClass"="Technician"Having upgraded from Technician to Technician Plus at this session, you may now use, without any special identifiers, Morse code on the 80, 40, 15 and 10 meter amateur bands (as authorized) and you may use SSB voice communications on 10 meters (as authorized).While operating in those portions of the amateur bands authorized by the CSCE you must identify with the suffix /KT or temporary KT. You do not need to use this suffix if you operate in those portions of the band that you could already use.

You do not need to use this suffix if you operate in those portions of the band that you could already use."NewClass"="Amateur Extra" We also encourage you to become accredited as a Volunteer Examiner, and to participate in conducting exams. I have blank application forms for that purpose. They may also be found in QST. ElementsCongratulations on passing the Elements. Remember, you have 365 days to use this credit toward an upgrade. The certificate issued to you at this session does not have any effect upon any other certificates you may have earned at earlier test sessions. Even though you did not pass the test elements you desired, don't be dismayed. Not everyone upgrades, or earns credit at each examination session. Many return to a future session and are often successful. We would sincerely like you to be one of those who returns, and is successful. Don't give u

You are currently waiting to receive one or more Amateur Radio Licenses to be issued by the FCC as a result of successful applications from earlier test sessions. Your upgrade application from this session cannot be forwarded to the FCC until your earlier application(s) have been processed by the FCC. Your application from the LastSession session will be sent to the ARRL/VEC who will hold it until you provide them with a copy of your most recent application. When your EffectiveClass license arrives, sign it, make a photocopy of the signed license and mail or FAX the copy to:

ARRL/VEC

225 Main Street

Newington, CT 06111

FAX:(203)665-7531

Until this is done, your application for the NewClass license cannot be sent to the FCC.
"NewClass"!="Amateur Extra"
