Subject: . congrats Princess Linda, New HAM!

        I am proud to have the honor of advising you that Princess Linda =
C. Knight has passed the Technician exam this evening, March 7, at the =
Gulf Coast Ham Radio club in Port Richey, Florida.

    The questions were spoken to her, as well as the multiple choice =
answers, to which she responded, and one of the proctors marked the =
choices.

    Another HAM club member and I waited outside with my guide dog while =
the exam was conducted inside the clubhouse.

    We were called to come in, and I said, "I heard you got 36 answers =
correct."  One of the fellas said, "she got one wrong.  She mis-spelled =
her name."

    In the ordinary course of bureaucratic  red tape, she will get the =
appropriate whatever in the snailmail.

    Congrats to Princess Linda!

    This was this club's first experience administering a test to a = blind
person.  The guys  said, "we learned something new today."
