FCC Part 74 licensing

Get your wireless mic license without the paperwork.

A Part 74 license lets you run wireless mics and IEMs at up to 250 mW, register for protection in the FCC's coordination database, and get a seat at the table when spectrum gets reshuffled. We check if you qualify, build your application, and file it for you.

How it works

  1. Answer a few questions. Two minutes to see if you're likely eligible.
  2. Tell us about your company and gear. Who's applying, what bands you run, where you work.
  3. Pay $299. If we review it and you don't qualify, you get a full refund before anything is filed.
  4. We prepare and file your application. You get a copy to review first, then we file it in the FCC's licensing system and send you the FCC fee notice to pay directly.
  5. You get licensed. We send the license when it grants, plus a reminder before renewal.

Questions

Why get licensed at all?

Unlicensed mics are capped at lower power and have the lowest priority in the spectrum. Licensed users can run up to 250 mW in the TV bands, can register their events in the FCC's TV white space database so other devices stay off their channels, and are the users the FCC accounts for when it moves spectrum around.

What if I don't qualify?

We review every application before filing. If you don't qualify, we refund the full $299 and tell you what would change that.

Is the FCC fee included?

No. The FCC charges its own application fee, which you pay directly to the FCC when we file. It has to be paid within 10 days of filing or the FCC cancels the application, so we'll remind you.

I already have a license under an old company.

We do that too. Tell us in the notes and we'll file a fresh application under the new company so the license matches who's actually running the gear.

Who is Eighty32?

A Las Vegas RF coordination company. We coordinate wireless for broadcast, corporate and festival work, so we deal with Part 74 and frequency planning every week.

Is this legal advice?

No. We're RF people, not lawyers, and we don't guarantee the FCC will grant any application. If your situation is unusual, talk to a communications attorney.
