License Management Fee Schedule
Your FCC issued Call Sign is your official license to operate a land mobile radio system. An FCC license is a dynamic instrument that includes periodic time sensitive evolution in order to maintain its good standing and your authority to continue operations on your radio system. AFC's License Management process provides peace of mind by:
- Reviewing your call sign to ensure its current good standing basis, and
- Ensure future FCC changes and time sensitive requirements are adhered to and supported.
The fees charged by the APCO Licensing Service for license management do not include the coordination fees charged by frequency coordinators or FCC filing fees.
