Default Thanks! Steps Worked POOF $60 GONE!

The verbiage on the FCC website has changed a bit from above, but with a little deductive reasoning skills you should be through it and $60.00 poorer in about 10 minutes. Then wait for it in the mail, but plenty of proof you applied and paid for it in the mean time.
