    My 1965 callbook has W3BNY listed as

    Walter J. Parker
    210 Wiltshire Dr.
    Chalfont, PA.

    I'll go dig out the older books to see if he's in there...

    Ren:

    I think I figured out that Mr. Parker was licensed probably in 1949 or early 1950, as he doesn't show in my 1948 callbook, but W3BNU does. W3BNY shows in my 1955 callbook.

    It appears the license became inactive sometime in the 70's. He's not in my 1979 callbook and I don't have one between 1969 (he's in) and 1979 (he's not).

    W3BNY might have been issued pre-1940, but I don't have the resources to check.

    I did check SSDI. I think Mr. Parker probably died either in 1990 (more likely) or 1997.
