Passed the Technician exam this morning. Missed two. Damn metric system....

Took the test in Davidsonville today. Aced the Tech and only missed one on the General. Didn't even consider the Extra.
Should have the call sign by Monday afternoon.

Go for the Extra ASAP. You already know much of the material. Might as well have full access to the band plan.

Have one in every room, one at work, and one in each car, a couple in the safe for when Little Kim sets off the EMP and then you're done.
