I don't think a callbook listing would be acceptable "proof" for the FCC

again, since no code test is required anymore, he can simply re-test for
any class license and request his old call as a vanity callsign.


Actually, it did provide the necessary proof for 5WPM. One just had to
be careful to include the year of the callbook in the photocopy. I used
old callbooks a number of times at the VEC's recommendation.

But, the point remains that proof of passing the Morse Code exam is now a
moot point, so this is just an acedemic exercise.
