[CW] I DID IT

[George, W5YR]

You would think that after all those years, I would have learned how to
type!   <:}

For the record, started in *1945*, licensed in 1946 (Class B) and again in
1947 (Class A - had to wait a year in Class B before taking the exam) and
will start my 58th year in ham radio on August 30, 2003. As the sig file
says, "It just keeps getting better!"

You might be interested to know that I was responsible for providing
emergency communications for the Battle of Hastings in 1066!
