Phil,

I received my call W N 9 Y B W just over 44 years ago while at the then 
named, Illinois Braille and Sight Saving School.  I don't remember the call 
of my first worked station though.  I was running 75 watts using an Eico 720 
and a Drake R4 on 75 meters.  I still have the log book so I could look up 
all that great nostalgia.

73's
