Carl... I do not think there can be too many hams.. There can, however, be too many LIDS, but that's another matter.
Flyer, I got my Novice and Tech in 1968 and even back then there were a few SSB rigs.. The club I belonged to had two stations, One was all Heatkit Indians, and the other was Drake. (Two different cities) both nice stations.
Finally did the paper upgrade to General and then wrote the Extra exam in 2006.
It is nice having the Extra.. I do not normally use the extra only parts of the band, but well,,, With the Extra I do not have to worry about out of band operation on the TS-2000, It very simply will not do that.
