Congrats to the new Extra!
I wish I'd done my 20WPM Extra back in the early 80s when I had all
that momentum built up from getting my Advanced. I really wish I'd
done it now that I hear you can get an FCC 2nd class radiotelegraph
license and get credit for the code part if you're a 20WPM Extra.
Instead, if I want to do this, I have to study like mad and do the
actually rather harder FCC commercial test.

Congratulations Lynn!!!
Good for you, we look forward to seeing you in the "Extra
subband". Of course now we'll have to teach you the secret
handshake... :)
I was one of the last "20 WPM extras", but hey, if you want to
learn it, you will.
See you on the bands.
