Didn't FCC change the vanity call rules right about then?

No, IIRC Gate 1 of the vanity program opened in May or June of 1996.

No-code started in '92. I would expect a bump in renewals falling due
from last year onwards.


Wrong. Try getting your facts straight:

Testing change: 2/14/1991. First no-code license issued 4/12/1991.


I see, December '91 instead of some time in '92. Not exactly a huge error,
is it? The first batch were all people who had taken the theory tests at
Anne Arundel ARC before no-code licences were actually introduced, and so
were ready to go when it came in. I think you may find that those six
people had the only no-code licences issued in the US in '91!
