Passed tech exam today

Good advice study for the next level.
Congrats on passing the exam and welcome to the hobby.
I intend to keep going onward and upward both in licensing and antenna, so the double meaning was intended. 
I actually tried the general test too but I hadn't studied for it so I didn't come close to passing, about 50% without reading anything about the general license requirements.
The next general exam is in February, hopefully I will be ready by then. Passing tech was fairly simple. I just used the QRZ practice tests and read everything ham I could get my hands on. The test showed me my weaknesses and I boned up on them. Winding up with 94.28%, I don't remember, back in school does that count as an ACE?
thanks for all the congrats guys, I know it wasn't that complicated but I like succeeding. :laugh:

The wait is killing me... seriously I could be dead before my callsign makes it to the database....
its been 24 hours and it feels like a week.
To pass the time till that happens you could always get on the cb and taunt all those losers with that fact of your superiority.

already doing that.... but most of the local cb'ers are friends of mine so I can't really be uber snobby about it.
