The license numbers I post here every two weeks point back to 2000 but not to 1995. I agree that since about 1987 or so, most new hams have started out as Technicians. You're a bit early. The Novice was the entry level license at that time. Technician was the consolation prize for passing the General exam, but failing the 13wpm exam. Maybe even earlier than that. But it's also true that many of them have gone on to other license classes. The total number of Technicians and Technician Pluses today is less than it was 5 years ago. =20 73 de Jim, N2EY That doesn't surprise me. |
