Well, some will be appliance operators, but a few will take an
interest and become the future of ham radio. We need the "head
count" to keep our hobby alive and well. I've seen many new hams
that had no background in electronics get their ticket by memorizing
the test. They then dove into the hobby and became true assets to
the hobby. Others just like to talk, and that's OK too. I guess
I'm and optimist.
Oh, I've been doing this ham radio since 1958, so I think I can say
the above with some creditability.
Welcome to all the new hams, no matter how you got your ticket.

Welcome to the new hams that are
taught the test and have no idea what
the questions mean.
