Anybody running a ham rig? (3 Viewers)

Good luck. You can do. If you think you know enough you do.

Thank you. I do feel ready. I have quite a bit electronic and computer experience in my background. But not anything RF related. That is where I am focused on my study for areas of improvement.

I was a Ham a few decades ago. I unfortunately let my license expire and never got around to retaking the exam to renew it. I've since moved on to other passions.

Since I passed the General test right before vacation, come June I will make my second attempt for the Extra license. The first attempt was the same day I passed the General, but I was unprepared for the Extra questions. In a nutshell, I was really weak with antenna theory and receiver particulars. Even though I carried my ARRL manual with me and self tested with the app thinking I would have time on vacation to go in depth, I was having too much fun and didn't really much at all. So I now have two weeks to pour over the info I have weakness in. I am confident. I will be planning my rig station shortly after and start assembling a "beginner" setup.
