What some people don't realize is that the loss of license privileges are for lifetime. Some who are licensed and offend think they may be able to get licensed again after a period of time.....not so, they're done, it's a one-shot deal. Offenders who are unlicensed at the time will lose their opportunity at ever having a license in the future...banned...don't even bother tryin'.
I guess the FCC assumes that the tests are easy enough (and, they are) that there is no excuse for operating out of bounds with the law. Makes sense.
