Youngest ham?

[WM4RB]

Congrats to all the young hams! My daughter Emily, WE4MB was 8 yrs. old when she passed the Tech. exam, 9 yrs old she passed the 5 words a minute CW exam. At 10 yrs. old she passed the General and Amateur Extra at the same test session.  She will be 18 in a few days and will be starting college this fall.

My son Eric, KF7TQU, passed his Tech within days of turning 17.  He would have had it at 16 but failed the first 2 attempts.

My daughter Leyla, just passed her Tech today on her first attempt, and she's 8 years old.

She's definitely enjoying the praise she's receiving right now and it's quite the confidence booster.

Eric is now 18 y/o and he is "enjoying" his 2nd week of of USMC boot camp on his way to become a Marine grunt.  He gets enough praise so having his little sister rub it in a bit won't kill him.
