Hi,
How long does it normally take the F.C.C. to get your call sign in their
online database? (If you are a newbie who just took the test and
passed?)... just looking for a ballpark number here... couple days? a
month? 5 years?

My son just took the General and followed it up a short time later with his
Extra and in both cases as I recall it took about a week.
