Hello everyone, I just joined and only got my Technicians class license a few weeks ago. I’ve been curious about ham radio for the longest time and finally decided to take the dice. It took a couple of tries at the test though, but practicing on hamstudy really helped me get the topics down. I’m planning on pursuing my General here pretty soon too. A little bit about me. I’m a 35 year old disabled Army veteran. I learned a love for comms while I was in service and I guess I carried it out with me. I’m LGBT and curious if there are other LGBT hams out there. I’m a bit of a geek and love my games and comic books. I also love horror in both film and novelizations. I love music and pink Floyd is my absolute favorite. I look forward to meeting you all on the airwaves. ---
