I honestly can't remember the exact year I was first licensed. 1976-1979 is best I can recall.
Does someone have U.S. callbooks from this era ?
I would like to know when my callsign first appeared. N0AOZ

Still looking for 1st appearance in callbook.
It will be in the date range I already mentioned.

I'm curious too. How about KN1KZG from 1958 plus/minus one year.

Thanks, Roger N1RJ

Might want to try the QRZ forum. Many more 'hams' there.

I can narrow the year down for you as very likely 1977.
I got my call, N4ACB, in April, 1977. The 1x3 N calls were brand new and went quickly.
Since you have an suffix starting with A my bet is yours is early 1977 as well.

I seem to recall there were 'seasonal' supplements or seasonal editions back in those days. In 1970 I showed up in the very next edition/supplement.
