Ham radio
Back in 1994 I took the exam for my GROL (General Radiotelephone Operator License) which qualified me to operate shipboard radios and repair them, but never need it much as my career path veered away from radios.
Recently at the suggestion of a friend who is into Amateur radio, I decided to take the amateur radio test and today received my callsign: KF5YMC. the radio bug has come back to me after 20 years!
(like i really needed another hobby!)

FCC test
Well,
today I took my Technician amateur license exam and passed.
after I get some experience under my belt with the 2m radio, I'll start cramming to take the next levels.
