Thanks for the announcement. I didn't know when the Novice Class was
created. I took mine in summer of 1958 (KN8MWA arrived Nov. 11,
1958), so I will have to wait a few more years for my 60th. My exam
was taken before a General Class ham (My ham instructor-mentor) who's
full name and call I have forgotten. His first name was Chuck and
was a school teacher at a nearby town.
Originally, was supposed to take Oboe lessons from him, but then I
discovered he was a ham (and had a evening class for ham radio). I
ended up buying his DX-35 to use with my Knight Ocean Hopper (3-tube
regen rcvr) on 40m. A couple years later my dad bought a HQ-100 for
me. Never learned to play the oboe, but did learn CW.
