I passed the exam for a Amateur Technician license back in June. Since then I haven't done much of anything with it. Instead I have been continuing to learn what I can and piece together different kit to try and get up and running. So far I just have a BFTECH tri band and a couple of antennae. The most recent thing I've worked on is putting together a quick reference chart that has the local repeaters on it and program my radio with some pre-defined memory channels so that I will have at least some rudimentary capability. Once I have something a little more well put together I'd like to write up something a bit more long form about it.
