Permission to brag, er, share good news? Since we're all somewhat geeky here, I'm happy to report that the Federal Communications Commission, in its infinite wisdom, bestowed upon me the amateur radio callsign KJ6FOI (mnemonic: "Freedom of Information") today, after I passed the Technician Class test last Saturday.
This is something I've been thinking of doing for decades. When I started, one of the obstacles was learning code at 5 wpm, which I accomplished. The other was coming up with money for gear, which I could have, but didn't. Nor have I done so today, actually. A radio was bestowed on me by Lutheran Social Services because I'm on their board and helping get their emergency/disaster response better organized and operating. Nick
