    Same. There are gobs of engineers around who don't do electrical stuff. I am one of them. Really good at other types of engineering, but most electrical stuff makes my eyes glaze over.

    Do you undestand basic electromagnetic principles?

    Also, there are several free and paid sites designed to prepare you for the Ham technician's test.

    ETA: there are young kids who pass the test every day... it's not very difficult.

    I don't get the point in all the "preper" stuff...I thought the whole idea was to loot and pillage off of all the "prepared" people? Or is that just me?

    No need for a 4x4 truck I say, like 7 of my neighbors have one.

    What's the point of living though all the pillaging if you don't get to enjoy the burning down of houses and looting of other's property? You guys are boring :P

    I didn't originate the phrase in my signature line. But I've certainly used it since I found it. At least once with great sincerity.

    It really does not take that much practice ... if you are a talented asshole like me.

    I'm a Scout leader and firearms instructor for the Council. That explains virtually everything I have, should anyone bother to ask. Since no one but my family gets to see everything I have, it's a moot point. You can barely tell when I'm home so it'd be hard for anyone to tell I'm bugging in until they notice the pile of bodies on the driveway.
