Congrats! (y) As others have said, go after the General now. It isn't that much more difficult to obtain than the Tech was. ;)
 
I intend to keep going onward and upward both in licensing and antenna, so the double meaning was intended. (y)

I actually tried the general test too but I hadn't studied for it so I didn't come close to passing, about 50% without reading anything about the general license requirements.

The next general exam is in February, hopefully I will be ready by then. Passing tech was fairly simple. I just used the QRZ practice tests and read everything ham I could get my hands on. The test showed me my weaknesses and I boned up on them. Winding up with 94.28%, I don't remember, back in school does that count as an ACE?

thanks for all the congrats guys, I know it wasn't that complicated but I like succeeding. :laugh:
 
The wait is killing me... seriously I could be dead before my callsign makes it to the database....:LOL:

its been 24 hours and it feels like a week.

To pass the time till that happens you could always get on the cb and taunt all those losers with that fact of your superiority.
