Yes, that was for you..

If you studied for it i was going to say "take the general written too" and be ready for the CW drop in a month.

I agree. The tech and general exam is a piece of cake. Extra test needs a bit of studying if you start out from scratch (like me) but nothing too bad.

I will see you at the test then.

Congrats!

We had a testing session here yesterday, i took my General for the heck of it, no problem with that, passed it easy.

If i had a little more time to prepare i would have taken the Extra too, will do that in March at the next session.

Now they just need to get the CW requirement officially dropped.
