Username to an Existing FRN provides guidance on how to link an existing FCC Registration

existing FRN.

the FCC Registration - Login page, enter your registered Username and Password
under “Username Login”. Click “LOG IN”. See Figure 1 below. If you do not have

has an Administrator associated with it, so that he or she can decide whether
to grant your FRN Association Request. An Administrator can assign/approve
permission levels for an FRN to other users. If the FRN does not have an
Administrator yet, then the comment will only be visible to you and saved for
your records.
Figure 3
5. This
page gives you options on how to associate the FRN to your Username: entering
the Password for the FCC Registration Number (FRN) or sending a request to the
FRN Administrator for association approval. If the FRN has a Personal Security
Question (PSQ) set, you may also enter the PSQ response. See Figure 4 below.
Option 1: Select the “Yes. Here is
the password:” radio button, type in the Password for the FRN, and click
“SUBMIT”.
Option

Question, “[PSQ]”: radio button, type in the PSQ response, and click “SUBMIT”.
Option 3: Select the “No. Send a
request to the FRN Administrator for association approval” radio button and
click “SUBMIT”.
Note: IF the FRN has
not been associated with another Username, it will not have an Administrator.
IF you choose Option 3 and an Administrator does not exist, you will receive an
error message.
Note: If the FRN was
registered through the updated CORES system, then a request will automatically
be sent to the FRN Administrator for association approval. You will not be
prompted to enter the PSQ response or FRN password.
Figure 4
6. If
selecting Option 1 or Option 2 you will be
directed to the Associate User to FRN Confirmation page. This page confirms
that you have successfully associated your Username to an existing FCC
