FCC Search Update

[Bucko]

Just an update that the FCC has changed their data search URL again. It is now found here http://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/searchAdvanced.jsp

I thought the 'Old' search pattern was way better than the one they have now.
If they thought this new system is a better scheme, then they need to fire the people that created it.
The old way was simple, clean, and easy to use; the new way is cumbersome, more difficult to get the info you want and just plain useless.
Why would you not put a simple State/County frequency listing? You used to get a simple, straight forward list, then click on the agency you wanted.

After using it a few months, I find this new site more flexible and just as easy as the old ones. Unless it's something real straight-forward like a callsign or FRN search, I usually go straight to either the Advanced or Geographic search options, and enter as much or as little info as necessary

You can combine the Advanced Search with the Geographic Search to make it even more flexable. You will need to go to the Advanced Search and then select the Geographic option at the bottom of the screen.

I started using the zip code search how ever not all pages seem to display for some areas? I would only really like new/pending license searches to be made easier unless they have a way to find this already. Prefer looking up by State or even county if still possible.

If anybody has better tips on this please let me know,

You can go to the advanced search and select the time frame desired (for example the last 30 days) the go to geographic to select the state and county. That's the way I get the latest info.

Alright thanks.. I was just playing around with the geographic section.

Problem with zip code search is that they use licensee addresses rather than transmitter sites, and there can be quite a few miles difference.

Here's another alternative site for just that: http://freqofnature.net:8080/grants/index.php
