I am curious about something in the record keeping of the FAA. I started out in 1958 or maybe 59 as WA6LGT then changed my call to WA5HLE sometime around 1960-61 when I moved to Texas, at that time it was required that you change your call if you moved. Then a few years ago to W5JAI when I became Extra but the records do not show the WA6LGT portion of my ham career. Maybe it was because I was in the military in Alaska when I got the license???
