Passed my General test, now I'm setting my sights on Extra. After Extra, I'm going to learn Morse Code.

I was in a bad motorcycle accident a couple of months ago and have been laid up with a bunch of broken bones. I came up with the idea a couple of weeks ago to upgrade my license....wish I would have started earlier, if i had I would have probably been taking my Extra test today instead. Oh well. I'm glad I've got another one down, now I can go play in the HF bands!

I can honestly say some of your threads were my inspiration....the RACES box thread and I think it also had a wire HF antenna towards the end of the thread.....made me jealous!!

Thanks!  It's amazing how much I've learned from reading some of the cool threads on this site.  There always seems to be a post with some project that would work great in my shack.  I keep a folder on my computer desktop that's full of pics and links to threads that I want to assimilate.

You'll really enjoy HF!

Started going through the extra question pool today, that's a bit daunting.

Um...isn't the code test part of the Extra exam?

Congrats! Don't let the extra questions scare you, they're just more of same.
