Walt .. I may be wrong and it was '55. Don't think so though. I got it
not long in months after it was first introduced. While on vacation in
Erie, Pennsylvania, from our home in Texas that summer, Dad took me to
Buffalo, New York to take the exam. I was told that at that time I was
the youngest kid to pass it at 15, but lots of others younger have since
passed it.

As the years go forward, the mind confuses the body .. and the body
confuses the mind. In all the confusion I can vouch for the fact that
all I've ever grown to be in many ways has derived totally from ham
radio. The organization of the sport, the competitiveness, the
technical springboard that it offers - and the log and record keeping
fences and proofing it demands are worth a great deal in helping learn a
lot about life. I'm very thankful for everything, all the doors it has
opened, and the many people who have helped me along the way - W5GDK,
the original W5VO, and W4AUT who were all mentors and took special time
to help me.

Sir Walter I am the Anon Keyboard -- your LaJolla connection NOT
"ANON"

Don't confuse me with the other bloke

Any way -- my records show the Extra class was instituted in 1951

You can see a complete rundown of USA Ham classes on my Ham History page.
callsign.com
A real mishmash with the advent of "incentive licensing"

Cheers -- are you planning a trip to CA soon ?

The Anon Keyboard
I doubt, therefore I might be

Thanks. Hmmm ... so it was either 1955, 1954 or 1951!

Go see a specialist. Your obsession is too psychotic even for the

And another no-code tech spews....


Wow, you are so well informed and not at all a psycho. You must work for
the Bush administration.


Errr, you did hear, didn't you? Bush kicked ass on Nov 2


So did Hitler on 07/31/1932. Whoever doesn't learn from history is
doomed to repeat it:
