What's the second overtone? :-)

So what really happened? My guess is that they only *seemed* harder
to those who took them - at the time they took them.

I thought the Conditional exam seemed difficult in 1952
(except for the easy 13 wpm code) and flunked the Conditional
written once when I was 14. 48 years later I aced the Extra
with a grade of 100%. The extra written exam seemed very easy
after a EE degree and 40 years of engineering experience. :-)
But in 2000, 20 wpm seemed difficult. Go figure.

Cecil, DId you get that license at an really early age? You were
licensed as a Conditional 2 years before I was born! I've seen the
picture of you on your bike, and you don't look that old..
