The Extra Class license, by what ever name it held always had additional
privileges.

Jeff, where do you see, in that article or *anywhere*, that the Amateur
Extra provided additional privileges? I got my General in early 1964, and
had *all* privileges. That is, I could operate CW in the entire CW portion
of any band, and phone in the entire phone portion of any band. In 1970? I
got my Advanced to get back some of the phone portion that was taken away,
due to incentive licensing, from the Generals.
