Wrong callsign in Amateur database

[bwilborn]

Hello,

Who or where should I reach out to so that I can get my callsign fixed in the DB? I checked in the About/Contact Us section to see if there was an e-mail that I could use, but didn't seem to find anything there. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I could be wrong, but isn't the callsign database nothing more than a dump of FCC records? Mike

It very well may be, but it's showing my initial callsign of KE0BST in the database. I just got my vanity callsign of N0QQQ approved as of 10/07 and that is now what is showing up in the FCC database.

The interesting thing is that when I adjust it in my profile it says "Your callsign is not in the database, click here to add it." Then, when I go to enter in my new callsign it says it's already in the database. THEN when I go to search for N0QQQ, it says it can't find it.

I'm so confused...

I'm pretty sure that RR updates that either weekly or maybe even monthly, but it isn't a "live" update.

OK. I'll just wait a bit and see if it fixes itself. If not, I guess I'll bring this back up for discussion in the future. Thanks!

Brian: you are in the FCC database with a Vanity call sign issued on 10/07/14 for a Technician class license with a former call sign of KE0BST. QRZ database shows almost the same info except they have KE0BST as an "alias" for you. In other words, QRZ seems to think you have 2 valid calls.


The ARRL database seems to have it correct. Since I an not associated with the RR database I am not sure where they get their information. I expect since you call sign was only issued this week that you are simply expecting faster action than RR is equipped for all will be corrected in good time.
