ARS License Numbers
 

These are the numbers of current, unexpired
amateur radio licenses held by individuals
on the stated dates, and the percentage of
the total number of active licenses that
class contains:

As of May 14, 2000:

Novice - 49,329 (7.3%)
Technician - 205,394 (30.4%)
Technician Plus - 128,860 (19.1%)
General - 112,677 (16.7%)
Advanced - 99,782 (14.8%)
Extra - 78,750 (11.7%)

Total Tech/TechPlus - 334,254 (49.5%)

Total General/Advanced/Extra - 291,209 (43.2%)

Total all classes - 674,792


As of September 1, 2006:

Novice - 24,494 (3.7%) [decrease of 24,835]
Technician - 284,694 (43.3%) [increase of 79,300]
Technician Plus - 36,183 (5.5%) [decrease of 92,677]
General - 132,213 (20.1%) [increase of 19,536]
Advanced - 71,045 (10.8%) [decrease of 28,737]
Extra - 108,307 (16.5%) [increase of 29,557]

(percentages may not add up to exactly 100.0% due to rounding)

Total Tech/TechPlus - 320,877 (48.8%) [decrease of 13,377]

Total General/Advanced/Extra - 311,565 (47.4%) [increase of 20,356]

Total all classes - 656,936 (decrease of 17,856)

Note that these totals do not include licenses
that have expired but are in the grace period.

They also do not include club, military, RACES
or other station-only licenses.

Note also that effective April 15, 2000, new
Novice, Technician Plus and Advanced licenses
are no longer issued.

Since April 15, 2000, FCC has renewed all existing
Technician Plus licenses as Technician. It is therefore
informative to consider the totals of the two classes,
since the Technician class includes a significant
number of Technician Plus licenses renewed as
Technician.

You're living proof CW was a good filter for lazy lids. It didn't keep all
the lids out, but it did keep stupid ones out until they come up with the
no code tech license.
