Supposedly If you already have a General or Advanced license but got it during the none CW requirements days you will have one year to complete the requirement or have all operating privilege revoked. Was hoping to do at least General but not so sure now.

You better read the letter that stated that and the date it was issued (April 1). The source quoted from the FCC in the letter was a lady named Dotty Dasher.

Many years ago, I used to have a ham license. It's been so long I don't even remember my call sign [WN6QYL?]. I had a Heathkit HW-101 and a 40-meter dipole. The HOA gave me a bad time because there was a restriction against TV antennas on the roof. I finally convinced them it wasn't a TV antenna, so I got to keep it. As this point I don't have any desire to get back into it.
