[CQ-Contest] The "Check" in SS

I didn't say anything about verification, and neither do the SS rules. Do you mean you can't remember the year in which you were first licensed? Anyone who can remember his or her first call sign can "verify" from Callbooks.

To those who have said "It doesn't matter what you use for a Check," some of us find the Check fascinating. Especially when it is in the previous century.
