I started in radio in 1972 with this callsign (PY5ACC) with 17 years old, class C operator. After this I made exams to class B and A and received the callsign PY5NEL. Due to dificulties of life I stopped operations. With 56 years old (2011) I returned to radio using my first callsign. And I am very happy operating with my original callsign.
