I have been a short wave listener since 1967. I enjoy the hobby and hopefully I will be able to keep it up for a long time to come. Earlier this week, I decided that I really should attempt to get my ticket. To reinforce that thought, I ordered an Icom IC-7300 transceiver. It should arrive Tuesday.
Initially I will use it for listening only, but having it sit on the tabletop hopefully should provide the incentive to actually study and take the Technician and General tests early this spring. Currently reviewing the ARRL Ham Radio License Manual and really not finding it that difficult. Evidently I have learned a few things over the last 50 years.
Looking forward for this new phase of the radio hobby.
