@667 I'm already licensed ... went "from zero to hero" on my own over a span of about 4 months back in 2010.
It's just so frustrating seeing the obstacles which are constantly thrown in the way of people who want to become licensed (or upgraded).

That’s wild your club makes newbies sit through such a course refuses any kind of modernizations. OMs for sure.

@667 @k0stk maybe I'm lucky with the clubs around me in FL. They'd be so excited to help a new ham they would probably buy you breakfast, drive you to the test, and give you a radio. My club is growing with 100+ members. The other local group who doesn't like club bureaucracy and paying dues just has a bi-weekly dinner at different restaurants. They are growing in size too.
