I had K6CCG in 1953. I was 12.

As a old bongo drummer I prefer "K" over "W" for cw rhythm....

"dah-di-dah" hits strong. "di-dah-dah" is wimpy......hi

Cecil, I know we are close in age and close in our university careers.
When were you licensed? My W1MCE is first re-issue in the mid 1950s and
predates the 'K' series of calls by a year or more.

My WN5DXP was a first re-issue in 1951. I was 13 at the time with
a Hallicrafters S53A and a Globe Scout 65B. So I'm working on my
second half century as a ham. (The 'K' calls always seemed kind
of sissy to me. :-)
