lucky you. i been getting to south america n couple other southern areas . but im using my sirrio 2008 at only 13 ft above ground.
next project is to move the 2008 to the old innernet dish pole n get er up there about 35 ft away from trees n buildings. that antenna impresses me. blows that a 99 out of the water
 
Whatever….my radio doesn’t go that high. LOL
Hmm ... maybe time to remedy that...seen a High School student whom had passed practice tech exam yesterday win a HT at a Hamfest yesterday... Instructor told us he thought young lad would pass General next weekend when official test session was given.
You cannot believe how much quieter 10m vs 11m truly is!
You can't work'um if you can't hear'um (y)
So nice to have a band with NO noise toys/Roger Beeps/Music playing/bucket mouth addicts etc.
That's like the 5-6ths Africa station last couple weeks. (in IND>)

I was studying right before Covid and then stopped. I think I would have passed. My study hood expires soon so I may wait till the updated tests are being given.

Around here if there are no conditions 27.025 usually has something but even then it’s hit or miss.

The current question pool for Tech expires in June. May want to get in there before then. Every question as you will see them in the exam can
be found on the ARRL website practice exam. Made it easy.
