And those of us who took our 13 wpm AND 20 wpm code tests in front of a grumpy FCC Inspector waiting for retirement instead of a collegial VE buddy can't stand to be in the same room with ANY of you guys!

I'm somewhat disgusted to think that there will be Extra Class licensees that don't know code but will be indistinguishable from me. (At the same time, the fastest code test I passed was 13 WPM for my General in 1974, so there are probably some 20 WPM Extras out there who can't stand to be in the room with me, either.) _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
