| I woke up this morning and decided today was the day.......down loaded a 40 page study guide, read it, went to the local hamfest and took the tech test and passed. Missed 4 questions. was driving home and it hit me.....now what ? |

Great ! Woot !
Did they send it in with your fees for your license ? Time for a radio. Join a local Ham radio club in your area and pay your dues. (Mine are about $20 a year, big whoop.) It gives me access to area repeaters and lots of other folks just like us. KI6HOJ |
......its a joke

Congrats. I need to get off my butt and take the first step. How $ much was it, sans radio? 10 bucks to take the test. 8 bucks to get into the ham fest. The study guide was free That's just great. Now, there are no excuses! I am looking for the download. |

Nice! I have an ICOM IC 207-H and I really like it. Not made anymore, but I'd aim for a nice dual band like it. Have Fun! I'll second this. I run an Icom IC-208H in my truck. You can find them on that auction site or sometimes in the classifieds at eHam. |
