[Elecraft] Dropping the Code Test

[N0tk at aol.com]

When I took the Extra exam in 1968, it was several years after taking the  
General exam and there was no Advanced class. I had to study for it quite a lot. 
 Those who got their Extra license earlier would tell me that the exam was 
much  easier when I took it than when they did as they needed to draw schematics 
of  circuitry to pass and I didn't. That did not take the edge off my feeling 
of  accomplishment. I assume that the more recent Extra class hams share in 
that  feeling of accomplishment.
