I just passed all exams (up through Extra) this past weekend, and my
paperwork was submitted to the FCC. After checking the FCC database, I
see
that I have been issued a Technician license and callsign. I'm surprised

it
was issued so quickly, but more surprised that a Tech license/call was
issued instead of Amateur Extra.

Should I call the FCC # on the CSCE form or wait a few days and see if it
gets "fixed" in the database?


I wanted to say thanks to all who responded and to provide an update in
case
anyone else has a similar problem.

My VEC contacted the ARRL VEC office and they corrected the error. A new
Amateur Extra callsign was issued along with the status change, and
presumably a new operator's license certificate will arrive in the mail.
