Hi Bill,

Fascinating! What entity issued your licence - the US Department of
Commerce? Not even the Federal Radio Commission, precursor of the FCC, was
around then. 

Wireless telegraphy must have been a wild free-for-all back then - there
would have been no regulations to speak of. Even the ITU enacted the
International Radio Regulations only in 1913, in response to the
communications mess surrounding the Titanic disaster.

Cheers for now, 73,
