   DS>Field Day Weekend, it was almost 7 weeks later before I got the paper   
   DS>copy. Back then, you had to have it "in hand" before you could operate.

   DS>time I saw was with an examinee who passed his Technician, General, and   
   DS>Amateur Extra in one session. The test results were mailed from Arkansas   
   DS>on Monday, and his callsign was in the database on Wednesday!!
