    Put me in the "Needs to take license test and has a radio" club..

    But I am planning on taking my test on 2/1/2014.



    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    Perhaps people who have studied a bit and are ready to take a test, but for some reason just have not yet can meet before/after the test? That may be just the little bit of motivation needed to actually show up?

    For me I had to put a date on it. otherwise I would just procrastinate and say to myself "meh, I don't want to go today.". Anyone need help with studying? I don't have a book, but I can lend someone flash cards if it would help.


    While I have a radio, my antenna recently was run over by the Garage door, and I cannot get one perhaps until the end of the month. I have several Baofengs for just in case. I am working on a program scheme for them though.

    This has happened to me more times than I can count. Wake up and say - naahh.. not today. I'm tired/hungry/hung-over/horny/etc..

    I would be more than happy to meet people in the morning before I go - coffee/tea someplace or actual breakfast. I am planning on going to the one at:

    I actually have a radio, one of the Baofeng units. Just need the test.

    Ohh and those who just want to get the Technician class for now; at least take the General afterwards, it doesn't cost extra and it is at least a free look at the next test.

    I have Echolink up on my iPhone and have tested with the Echotest. The only other I have set as a favorite is W0TX-R. I am still trying to monkey through the settings on my Mac and Airport for use on the computer.

    I spent last weekend updating my Baofeng's. I put in a lot of the repeater FQ's and some simplex FQ's as well.
