Hey Jeffhs, you must have me mistaken with someone else because i have never been on the air before. Never even used a peice of ham equipment really. I had just taken the test because my college electronics instructor wanted us to get the training and to pass the test to get our licenses. He is very into ham radio and i believe takes care of the repeaters and stuff around his side of the island.
I didnt mean that we had to take the GROL exam to upgrade our license, just that it was another certification that we are supposed to attain. But we will have the chance to upgrade our ham license's if we so choose. But personally i doubt i would ever get into the hobby since its just so much easier to communicate with the internet and i dont have any of the equipment i would need. Although a transciever would be cool to just listen in on police/fire bands and air traffic control.
