I found you in a 1971 Callbook as a Technician Class licensee living in San Diego. By then, I was finishing up at the University of Wyoming. We lived in El Cajon until 1960, then moved to Sacramento where I graduated high school in 1967.

Ah, the good old "WN" days--a non-renewable year being rockbound. 75 watts plate input, CW only on HF! (And fighting the foreign broadcast carrier heterodynes on 40 meters!)
