With all due respect for Dan's "geography" ( ):> ), South Carolina is
not South of the Border, unless you live in North Carolina of course.
It's been a while, but I remember the FCC voided every single license
issued by the
W5YI VEC for a period of about 3 months. Extensive fraud by the
examiners, unqualified examiners, and participants were named. And
that included allegations by the FCC that some individuals had been
given the actual tests prior to the examination.
