David, LF,
Thanks for the pointer to your web site, the content is interesting. I
looked back at the early 60's when I took my RAE & thought, did I pass that.
I hope you plan to develop the site further.
Cheers,
Gary - G4WGT.

The pass mark was more like 50%, Mal, +/- due to the papers being
moderated in those days. If anyone's interested there are ten old
written RAE papers on my web site, including the one I took in May 1954.
Spot the mistake in Q.8! Other papers can be made available if
required.
