Today I have the extremely good fortune to celebrate 78 years of being a
licensed ham.  On a day late in January 1937, in Kingsville TX, I came home
from school and found a small envelope waiting for me.  Inside was my
license, dated January 19, 1937:  operating privileges Class C, station call
sign W5GGV.  I was 14 years old at the time.
