Re: upgraded to General :)
Nice! I got mine back to back when I got my Tech, was a last minute thing. I didn't use it right away but finally got an HF radio last Spring and have really enjoyed it since. It's a weird feeling at first to almost always be able to find an open band.
Great job, use it well!

Re: upgraded to General :)
Good to hear it Mark, don't wait too long to go for the "Extra", grab a book and study and there is a good app for your iPhone by "Roy Watson", a good practice exam, it's free too. You probably already know but here's the site to check if it's posted, [Please login or register to view this link] .

Hey dirtyjob...
I'm on the air just about every day...20M-10M chasing DX.
Give me a holler if you have the time...but you only get one chance.
