upgrade has gone through. There is also a Canadian search engine, links to the QRZ and
Buckmaster databases, and a form for finding QSL information on-line. You can even check the daily activity log of the FCC to see what
license actions have been taken during the day, or apply for a vanity call sign on-line.
