Re: OT:. "High end operator" Message-ID:

[Elecraft mailing list]

I don't usually post here because its a pain to but I couldn't resist.

I thought it was a typo and should be

Hind end operator!

And by the way, its the generals like my self that are relegated to the high end of the bands.

Last I heard, there were no restrictions on who could study for and take
the Extra Class exam.

In the 50's [I was first licensed as KN6DGW in mid-1953] our local club
congregated on 29.580 AM.  I got a 40 meter rock for my TX as soon as I
got my General and could get on 10.  The number of young folk increased
in the club, and finally one of the OT's measured all the OT's actual
crystal freq against their TX freq, ground new rocks for each for
29.695, figuring none of us young studs could chance getting that close
to the edge of the band.

We decided that if they didn't want us, we could do without them.  I
think they might be the Ultimate High End Operators.  They're all dead now.
