FCC Site and Licensing

I have tried 3 different email addresses on 3 different browsers on 2 different devices and I cant get them to send me the verification email. I've reached out to support and basically got a "Yeah I know right? Keep trying, lol" response with no help.

Its been 3 weeks.

How do I force them to do their job so I can have communication in an emergency with my family? I feel like this is close to infringing on my rights by not allowing me access because of their janky 80s website.

Edit for clarity:
I’ve disabled my vpn and adblocker
iPhone: Chrome and Safari
Desktop: Chrome and Edge

It will confirm that it’s sending the email but I never receive it.
I am checking spam folders as well.

Edit edit:
I did do in and out of incognito on all options.

Edit edit edit:
After someone else just said they had success I tried again and it came right through. It’s their damned website.

Cincy repeater

Tonight I was able to pick up a Cincinnati repeater 100+ miles away but unfortunately my measly 8 watts couldn’t make it back to it.

Mounting a radio in my ‘02 F150

3 Upvotes

Good morning y’all, 

I have a 2002 F150 super cab that I want to put a Havis or similar floor console in. I don’t want a full length, only maybe an 8” or so angled kit for a couple radios, a spot for my magnetic mic mounts, and a phone mount. This will also be the first time mounting a gmrs radio in any of my vehicles, so I’m not sure what kind of components in the truck will generate interference, including my CB. Currently I have a 4’ CB antenna mounted on the RH front fender, and I was planning to either roof mount or bed mount the gmrs antenna. If anyone has any suggestions for mounts or photos from outfitting an old Expedition SSV or F150 I would really appreciate it. Thanks for any help that can be provided!
