Hi Al & group,
QCWA maintains a library of old Callbook dating back to about 1913 when the
Department of Commerce produced a complete list of stations. Pretty small
book! All member applications are verified by the two person HQ staff. It
helps to have an approximate year to start the search since this is a
manual effort. You just need the original call and best guess on the year.
Congratulations! There is an award for members available from QCWA for 50
years. You got me by 10 years.

I've heard that the QCWA (Quarter Century Wireless Ass'n) has,
or at least had, a complete set of the old Call Books. It would
at least localize one to a particular time period, if not an
exact date.
If you find a better answer, please post it for us.
Good luck and 73,
Bob N6WG

In reading this thread I wondered if I could find out what source would
contain the date a ham was first licensed ? I admit I do not know when I got
my
first ticket but it was 4 calls and 6 moves ago. HI ! Somewhere back in the
early sixties, I believe.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
