[RFI] FCC Compliance and Enforcement

[Tom WA9WSJ]

 Mine was easy too. I worked all neighbors with a Heathkit Seneca on 6 meters :) Still have yet.
Got a couple of awards from the FCC office in Chicago! No citations just inquiries. I was 17, scared me until I learned how to deal with them.

wouldn't have been able to get my Worked All Neighbors award!
