Subject: 47 years as a ham

Today it has been 47 years since I got my novice at age 14.  I was at = the
Nebraska school for the blind on a Monday when I got a call from my = mom.
My license had come and I was now WN0ORO.  I hung up and ran for = the ham
shack and worked 80 meters; working a guy about 200 miles away.  = My 6
months as a novice has been the highlight days of my years as a = ham.

Phil.
