I received my license KA7TYA around 1983 I was 23 years old, by September 1985 I had upgraded to Tech Plus and a new call N9FKQ.

In April of 1998 I upgraded to General and received the vanity call W9NED, this was my fathers call from

1956 thru the mid 70's when he let it lapse. In 1986 he reapplied and received KA9UTR.
