I was always allowed to homebrew, because I did the full theory.  Even though I
was a Novice effectively on the HF bands, home brew transmitters were still
allowed.  Since then, I've been grandfathered into the current Advanced licence
(highest level), because the only difference between me and the old full calls
was I had 5WPM Morse, instead of 10.
