That was interesting reading Ken. Up until you started with high power, I was with you. I licensed in late 1955 and got on 80 meter CW as a Novice about 6 months later. My parents would not let me order anything until I knew I had passed the test. ARC equipment followed for about a year and a half. I did not have a high power AM signal until 1992 when I found this Globe King 500A.

I do wish I had my old Novice license, but I know that is long gone. The best I can do is a QSL card from my elmer dated early 1957. You have made me wonder if anyone here has a QSL from KN5MDQ or K5MDQ, especially the Novice one. I would like to find a copy.

Since we are going down memory lane, I thought I would put in my 2 cents worth:
