Used to be. Honestly don't even remember my callsigns.

I became a Technician when I was in high school because I lived in NYC (went down to Varick street to take the test) but didn't know anyone who could administer the Novice test.

Built a small QRP rig but never made contact with anyone and lost interest.

A few years later I went back to get either my Extra or Advanced...who remembers. I did that more to see if I could copy code at the required rate than for any other reason. Actually I think my last license might be in the safe, I should take a look someday.

I was never that interested in being a ham and talking to other people; SWL was much more fun. I had QSL cards from all over the world.
