The Amateur Radio license goes paperless:  It happens this month.
I'm sure you've heard it by now:  The FCC will no longer be issuing paper copies of Amateur Radio licenses.  This cost-saving change goes into effect this month - February 17, in fact - and will save both money and staff time for the FCC.  It affirms what has already existed in practice, which is that the FCC's ULS record is the official proof of licensure, not the printed paper license.
