About this episode
The FCC is set to exempt amateur radio operators from new foreign adversary reporting requirements—great news for hams!This YouTube video covers the ARRL's January 15, 2026 update: In a draft Report and Order (GN Docket No. 25-166) released January 8, 2026, and adopted January 29, the FCC places Amateur Radio Service licenses in Schedule C, exempting them from attestation and detailed reporting.Thanks to strong ARRL advocacy, the FCC recognized amateurs pose minimal national security risk—no commercial services, no public network ties, and hobby-only use.
