I suppose I'm getting there...   58, and licensed for 44 years now, 
41 of those as
an Extra class licensee... not to mention past holder of a 1st Class 
Radiotelephone,
and a 2nd Class Radiotelegraph ticket, complete with a RADAR endorsement. Nasty
comments from some punk with a no code "Cracker Jack Box" license amuse me.

As for me, l'll deal with the Old Buzzards anytime; how many of the 
new generation
of "Extras" can put a PL259 on a hunk of coax, let alone design or 
build a workable
transmitter?

They'll take away my plate modulator when they pry it outa my cold, 
dead six foot
relay rack!!! <<smile>>

If that makes me an Old Buzzard, then SO BE IT!
