It all depends on the volume of applications received. On slow weeks turn around
can be very fast, and if a zillion people pass the test next week, it will be much
longer...... Congrats to all of you for getting your license...
It depends....
The FCC is all computer processed. If they receive it,the FCC updates 24/7 except weekends. No delays.
The only delays are VE based. If you test via Laurel, W5YI or a group thet processes on site, via computer, you could have your call by the time you leave the test area.
ARRL VEC still is paper based, which means they have to mail it to the ARRL, who then keys it into a computer for upload to the FCC. Depending on the mail delays and staff load for ARRL, you could see delays.
