Former Novice returns to ham radio after 55 years
*Alan Thompson* got his Novice amateur radio license WV6ZHL when aged 11 in
1962 but let it lapse, 55 years later he has returned to the hobby as
*AJ6AR*
The Mountain Democrat newspaper says:
There were four ham radio license classes available in 1962, each with
increasing privileges. The novice-class license was the first and an
entry-level ticket to the world of ham radio.
One of Thompson’s first steps to get back into amateur radio was to join
the local El Dorado County Amateur Radio Club where he could meet other
local hams and start catching up on current radio technology.
After three months of online study on sites like eHam.com and HamStudy.org,
Thompson felt he was finally ready to pass the license exams.
Thompson passed all three exams in one sitting, and earned an extra-class
ticket, the highest Amateur Radio license available.
