🚨 **Ham Radio Alert: FCC Just Gave You EXTRA TIME to Renew Your License—Don’t Miss This Game-Changer!** 🚨

Picture this: You’re mid-QSO on the air, signals flying, when BAM—your license renewal deadline looms like a solar flare. But hold onto your dipole! In this urgent breakdown of the latest ARRL news, we dive deep into the FCC’s MASSIVE extension for ham radio licenses expiring between October 1, 2025, and March 5, 2026—now pushed ALL the way to March 5, 2026! No more panic filings, folks. Whether you’re a Technician, General, or Extra chasing those DX contacts, this buyout from the 43-day government shutdown chaos is your ticket to keep the bands buzzing without interruption.
Shutdown Backlog Blast: ARRL VEC has OVER 2,500 apps queued up and is hammering them into the FCC system (at a snail-paced 75/hour limit—ugh!).
