Yes, it is.  The exact year for W6YX is in a little doubt but they were 
definitely there by 1924.  Some ancient memory that I can't really dig 
out tells me that MIT and Harvard tussled over who was earlier ... but 
I've never worked Harvard, if there ever was a club there, and I have 
worked W1MX.  Operated W6BB at Cal in the later 50's.  Started in 1914 
as 6XB but I don't know if that would count as a valid check for W6BB 
today ... different call.

Regardless, I had a little time to play in SS CW today, a heartening 
number of later checks.
