I sorta took the test on a whim at Antique radio swapmeet/hamfest in my old home county in Ill.

I'd love to read up on procedure and get things straight before I start buying/installing/building TX hardware....Though I do have an old Heath DX-60, and IIRC a tranciever intended for automotive installation, though god only knows if either presently work.
Hopefully, you're going to be at the July 9, meet.
I have some kind of a ham-type transceiver that I got from the family of a silent key. I looks like a 10m unit. Yours FOC.
