[Elecraft] Passed Amateur Extra Class License Today

[Alexandra Carter]

Congrats to the new Extra!

I wish I'd done my 20WPM Extra back in the early 80s when I had all  
that momentum built up from getting my Advanced. I really wish I'd  
done it now that I hear you can get an FCC 2nd class radiotelegraph  
license and get credit for the code part if you're a 20WPM Extra.  
Instead, if I want to do this, I have to study like mad and do the  
actually rather harder FCC commercial test.
