He said he could download a PDF of his license. Just like here in .US. That is good enough for ARDC.
I could last time… that was nearly 12 months ago. If I do it now, I'll be submitting the exact document I submitted 12 months ago. It referenced an expiry of 2025-01-15.
If I do it after 15th January next year, the document will no longer be on the ACMA Register of Radiocommunication Licenses… I'll have been force-transitioned to being on the class license. Even if I use the file I have now, the existing one from the ACMA will be considered invalid at that point. There is no replacement following it because the ACMA no longer issues them.
My callsign is old enough (October 2008) that there's no "letter" saying I was assigned this call other than the license renewal notices, which would otherwise imply I no longer hold this callsign.
There's no WIA callsign recommendation document for me, as that was brought in later. Only those licensed circa 2012 or so would have such a document.
