Not after you get used to it. I was once told I was a second class Ham  
after comparing creds with another Ham.

I'm the Chairman of the largest State QSO party - PAQSO, in reality we  
tend to run neck and neck with CAQSO, but you get the point.

I'm active in club matters, being the Vice president of my local club,  
and the Mountaintop station manager for the same.

I'm active in all our public service activities, including race  
support and emergency support.

But he is CW only, and therefore a superior Ham. Ya cain't argue with  
the superior!


The story has an upside though, after my revelation of Second Class  
status, here I is!
