[Hammarlund] Remember The Old Popular Electronics SW Calls?

[RAY FRIESS]

My call was WPE7COK, issued when I was in high school.
When I graduated from high school and we moved across the country, my
certificate and other papers were lost (including a box of all my Novice time QSL cards received).
I would love to have a reproduction of the certificate...
