It was exciting, years ago, when I upgraded to General (at the FCC office) and was a lot of work to get Advanced, but I found Extra to be rather anti-climatic. After passing the Advanced written test, I found the Extra written to be somewhat unchallenging. While waiting for the Advanced test to be given, I took and accidentally passed the 20 wpm code test. A month later, I passed the Extra theory and that was that. My license upgrades had come to an end.
Looking back, I'm glad to have my Extra. It makes life much easier. Still, these days, I spend most of my time in the General portion of the CW subband. - Keith N1AS - - K3 711 - ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
