[CW] KPH

[Benny K5KV]

HI DAVID

SAD TO SAY I WAS POUNDING BRASS ON A HAND KEY THEY HAD MOUNTED ON THE
OP TABLE.  I DONT RECALL THE MONTH BUT IT WAS IN 1974.   I LET MY
TICKET GO IN 1991 AND ABOUT 1993 KLC WANTED ME TO WORK WEEKENDS.  I
CALLED FCC AND ASKED IF I COULD DO SOME KIND OF RENEWAL OR RETEST AND
WAS TOLD A FLAT NO.   AMAZING NOW THEY ARE STILL ISSUING A LICENSE
TODAY BUT WHEN I NEEDED MINE FOR A JOB IN 1993,  THEY WERE NO HELP.

I TRIED TO STAY UP FOR THE BENEDICTION BUT WAS TOO SLEEPY.   BETTER
CHANGE THAT BREAKER TO BE SURE.
