I saw this and am now lurking on the local repeaters while I study for a Tech license - couldn't resist the deal for a "starter" radio, and it seems to work pretty well. I tried and gave up on the Code stuff back in the 70s, but since I am an electrical engineer, the only learning curve I have for the test now is the ham legalities and culture.

Thanks for the pointer!
