I took my Extra at the FCC in St Paul somewhere 1985-1987. It was about
6 months before the FCC testing ended. I wanted to get it out of the way
before the VE program started. Fear of the unknown, I guess. I worked as
a VE early on in the program. I've seen some abuses, but overall I think
it is a great change for us hams.

I'm pretty sure it was in the early 80's.

My memory is that it was a LOT later than that. I'd guess late '70s
to early '80s.
