Thanks for the info, Jim. Yes, I suspect the youngest would be girls since
males tend to mature at a later age. Check the posts in the newsgroup for proof of that 73 from Rochester, NY Jim AA2QA "N2EY" wrote in message ... Interesting story and obviously a very bright kid! Homeschooled, too. The story documents other young hams, including the Philly area's W3OVV, who earned her Class B at the Philly FCC office soon after her 10th birthday - in 1948. This was back in the days when *all* US ham licenses required 13 wpm code, sending and receiving, and when the writtens were not only "secret" but also consisted in large part of essay and draw-a-diagram questions. One interesting side note is that these young hams are almost all girls! 73 de Jim, N2EY "Age requirements? We doan' need no steenkeen age requirements!" --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
