Just found this forum while looking for info on getting my technician liscense . Maybe in a few days when I actually know something about ham radio I might have a few questions .
But for now I am pretty good ... I've found a few pretty good web sites for the study materials and I have found a local test in about a month to sign up for .
I also have a first radio coming IN the mail a baofeng hand held .. maybe not the best choice for a first radio . But living on a very fixed income it was that or nothing . And being as it will be at least a month before I can use it I'll have plenty of time to learn how to program it .
Anyhoo a tiny bit about me ... 42 , live in north east Ohio and partially disabled so I have a fair bit of free time to kill . I do have a few other hobbies to occupy my time ... shooting , reloading and bullet casting .
And I have the start to a small machine shop out in my garage where I spend the bulk of my time .
I'm sure to have a zillion questions in the future so thanks for your help in advance
