I got the "general" radiotelephone ticket
(used to be called "2nd class")
on
the first testing day after they eliminated 1st class
and changed the
rules
(hmm, this would be early 1980s), but never got a
radio job or otherwise
had any practical use for it.
I earned my first class license in 1975. Never got a job in the industry
so, I let it lapse. Still have the certificate laying around here ...
somewhere...
