Let us do the work for you
FCC licensing can be complex and overwhelming, with technical calculations and extensive paperwork, but we handle everything for you: from the paperwork and submission to tracking it through completion.
Working Together to Meet Your Needs
Our communications consultants and licensing department work together to file the FCC applications needed to meet the communications needs for both industrial/business and public safety organizations. We work with you to complete a brief worksheet, sign an FCC Form 601 signature page, and remit full payment of GenComm’s services and FCC fees. We must either register and file the applicant’s FCC Registration number (FRN) and valid password or be provided access to this information by the applicant.
Services include:
- FCC Registration Number (FRN) registration
- Complete Form 601 application preparation
- Frequency coordination
- FCC filing
- Notice of Completion of Construction
- License modifications and renewals

Can I use FRS radios for my business?
Yes. Recent changes to FCC rules now allow FRS for business usage. However, most businesses find that due to the shared use causing interference and FCC power limitations having weak signals, these radios do not work well for business needs.
I already have radios. Can I use your licensing service?
Yes. We can license you for radios you currently own.
