The ARRL VEC has told our team leader that we will be beta testing direct FCC entry of test results sometime before the end of the year. Right now all the paperwork is mailed to ARRL Hq and they check it for errors and then enter the data to FCC online. I usually takes about a week counting the mail delay. If that is the case people that pass an exam will have a license or upgrade within 24 hrs of the test, since we test on Monday they will have a license or upgrade by Tuesday PM. The CAVEC VEC already does it now so it can be done. When I worked with the CAVEC group and we tested at the Atlanta hamfest on a Saturday the licenses were issued by 2:30pm on Monday.
