After a lapse of inactivity of almost 40 years, I want to revive my
participation in amateur radio. I'm planning to take the tech exam soon but have discovered that If I can prove that I had a technician license, I can get credit for the code test and enhanced theory. In essence, finding that proof will get me a general for a technician test. My problem is that I discovered that BCPI, the archiver for the FCC has no 1960s liscense archives. THey were reduced to microfiche an later lost in a flood!!! Some archive. Anyway, my old callsign was WB2VWZ. I got my tech during college (1962 - 1966) and I lived in Staten Island, NY. If anyone has an old callbook, I may be able to use a copy of a page from it. Please let me know. Paul |
