My Licence Journey
I acquired my foundation licence at the beginning of June 2022 (M7JBR), then my intermediate (2E0SUQ) later the same month. I passed my full exam in November 2023 and was issued G1JOB.
Yes, you can get a G callsign from ofcom, IF its your first full callsign! You are not able to change your callsign under the current rules, but can choose a non allocated callsign in the G range when you first pass your full exam, but you will need to do a paper application and pay a small admin fee!
