Re: [IRCA] IRCA Quote Of The Week

Hi Bob-
The other day, just for fun, I went on to QRZ.COM and took the Technician
test. I never took the Tech test as when I started in ham radio (the 1950's)
it was a dead end ticket. Anyhow, I passed it. It is as easy as the Novice
use to be. All you really need to know is how to spell your name correctly.
:)

Good luck to you on test, Bob.

As for CW I had a hard time with it, until I changed my attitude towards
its. Now it's all I work.
