Non-pilots just don't understand how relaxing flying is.

I know the Tech you can get w/o code, but the General and Extra require
it. If I bothered, I'd go for at least General if not Extra. Antennas,
I know, circuits I understand, freqs, power, all that is simple stuff
(OK, it's not but it seems like it to me). The only parts I have to
look up are regs and legal freqs for each license. I know the reason I
don't get much traffic on 2650 is because Techs can't use it (maybe only
Extra class, have to look it up).
Actually, my biggest problem is I don't even know if the US Amateur test
is administered in Panama. I doubt it. So I'd have to wait for
sometime when I have time and am in the states.
