I'm personally looking forward to the new rules - I got a "know code"
technician in 1992 and plan to bump myself up to at least general since
I already have the 5 wpm. I'd been wanting to get a ticket for a while,
my father was one in the '50s, but he let his lapse. The final straw
was the depletion of the "N8" call sign - I got N8TVD, as I said earlier.
My younger brother got N8YKN. AFAIK, techs around here get "KC8" calls now.
