I remember all eleven I'm afraid. My phone number was Jackson 4-5434. My QSL was KPH 5768. I swapped and collected QSL card. Sending as many as you could stuff in an envelope with a four cent stamp. Post cards were a penny. I still have a Coors can in my fridge that requires a church key. I remember collecting empty pop bottles for their deposit money.. two cents each. I remember the lucky few that had an air conditioner for their car... rolled up into the window. I mowed the lawn as a kid with a push reel mower. I remember when a Daisy air rifle would knock a sparrow out of the tallest tree or the back window out of the neighbors house. I remember when we got our first 45 record player. The record player we had when I was little only played 78's and was a nice piece of furniture. I was taught how to drive in my father's 1936 Ford pickup. I could go on but old men need their rest. lol
