drivers license but the government screwed up in reporting it.

In my younger days (60's) I operated a mobile ham radio CW (morse code)
rig in the car while driving cross country. (Code is like a second
language that can be read in your head without writing it down. I
generally went 20-40 WPM.) Lots of fun. Makes using a mobile cell these
days seem seem like duck soup...  :-O
