Congrats! Welcome to the ham world

Thanks shane!

Ya, just what I needed... another hobby to keep my bank account balance low

Between the FJ, ham radio, guns, and cameras... ya, I'm single!

Durn, I'm still waiting on my call sign issuance. The VE's sent in the form 605's last month from the test session I took, but apparently they got lost in the mail (ARRL didn't receive them).

So, had to fill out another one and mail it to one of the VE's. Now, to wait some more.

Seems like I've been humming String Bean's tune for the past month...

Sorry to hear of your luck. Hope it works out soon.
