I just moved, and I want to change my registered address with my call-sign.

  • Is there a form or something somewhere that I can fill out?

  • Do I have to mail it, or can I turn it in to the FCC or something electronically?

  • Does it cost anything?

  • What will happen if I fail to get my address updated for a while?

Here is the link that describes how to update your FCC information.

http://wireless.fcc.gov/services/index.htm?id=amateur&job=cft&page=cft_change_address

I do mine on the website and I have not been charged for it. Within a few weeks a new copy of your license with the new address will arrive in the mail.

As for not updating in a timely manner, if you do something that requires the FCC to contact you and they are unable to is when it's time to worry. I believe fines start around $2700 for that but I may be wrong.
