I just passed my tech and general Saturday. I always wanted to get into Ham and never had the chance. I am tryign to be somewhat old school with my equipment. So I am buying a Drake TR-4C this Saturday. I'm looking for some other parts as I can, when I see deals. I am also very interested in learning all I can, especially in CW. Working on that now.
Buy the RV-4C. You'll thank me.

Congratulations Shane on passing your Exams.......and welcome to the Island!
Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!

Welcome to the Island. I appreciate having some fellow newbies! :) I hate being the only one asking dumb questions.

It's okay--you can make up for having competition by asking the dumbest ones ;)
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Good to know I have a place in Society.

Do you have one for sale?
I will also add that my dad, who will be 67 in three days, always wanted his license and never took it because he couldn't get the Morse Code down. He used to use CBs in the 70s, hopping them up with power, etc. He also used to repair TVs in the 70s, so he is very familiar with electronis. (He also worked for IBM, ITT, Fairchild and Teredyne.) His friend was a serious Ham and he always wanted to do it. I told him I was taking the exam and that he didn't need to know Morse. He started studying and in two weeks was ready to take the test with me. My mother, who is 66, used to do drafting for an engineering firm when she was young. She saw us studying and said she wanted to take it.
Dad and I got our General and Mom only tested for Tech, but she passed, only missing two questions. Her goal is to have extra within a year. Dad is studying extra now. I don't have time now, but I will later. Anyway, we all tested together and got our tickets together, so that was pretty cool.
