I got my Extra somewhere around 89. That does not make me any better or 
worse than the guy that got his yesterday or 40 years ago. BUT it does have 
its benefits.

I am primarily a CW DX chaser, and most of the DXpeditions operate in the 
extra portion of the CW band.

It also means that in a contest you can start at the bottom of the band and 
work your way up the band and not have to worry about being out of your 
segment.

Despite what was said in a post on here, there is activity other than 
contests in the Extra portion.

Congrats to the guy who said that he passed his Extra. I hope that you enjoy 
it and take advantage of the privilages.

Other than I use T T radios and have since 86, I cant see what this has to 
do with T T.
