K0HB queried:

" Now, if I am operating W0EF in SS do I use:
> A. 1924 (The year W0EF was first issued)
> B. 1963 (The year I was first licensed)
> C. 1992 (The year the club was first licensed)
> D. 1994 (The year W0EF was issued to our club)
> E. 1955 (The year my cousin Frank caught the crabs on liberty in Kobe) "

The correct answer would be "C".

Because:

The callsign being used was issued to the club, and 1992 was the year the
club was first licensed.

Does it matter really?  Nope.
