Congratulations!!!  Your call sign should not take two weeks.  My wife got hers in only 4 days from the date of her exam.  Just keep checking the ULS.  Hopefully, you will have it by the week's end, at the latest.

I was supposed to take my Tech test on Friday. Unfortunately,I went to where the exam was supposed to be and found out it had been moved. I beat feet over to the new location,because I had been told they wouldnt wait for me. When I get there I'm told " Oh we moved the location months ago,nobody updated the website" Then ,I find out only two of the three VE's have showed up. So I get told "Sorry,cant test without three VE's,try again next month" Now,my friend and I had called the day before to verify that the exam was Friday,so somebody knew I was coming. I'm so pissed about the whole thing,I've started asking myself if its worth the bullshit to get my license.

It's worth the bs...

get online at arrl.org and look up the local radio groups in your state/county or you can look up by zip as well and call around. You'll find someone that will most likely be able to test you out within a week or two and prob be more than willing to help point you in the right direction

good luck man!

and thanks for all the kind words folks!

Thanks for the encouragement,but I already checked and there's nothing until next month. The runaround was from the local club. I will probably get my license,but first impressions last and the local club hasnt impressed me.
