Only if YOU and or, a control op is ther that HAS  the extra class ticket.

A "Superstation"  has NO privleges at all.  It is the control OP  that 
determines  what can eminate from that station.

A good example would be.  If I went in 1975 as a Novice to super station 
"W9XX" Legal limit on all bands, all modeds etc.

If I'm the only one there, all i could do is CW with 75 wats input  and 
ONLY on the Novice Bands.

Now If John "W9ZZ" who holds an Extra class ticket, comes in and states 
he will be the control OP,  then  I now have Extra class privldges. And 
can run any power and mode and or freq permitted to the extra class ticket.

Now  would be exactly the same.  but replace the tech ticket for the 
Novice ticket. or general for novice etc.
