Maybe you flyboys won't think too much of this but you are now talking to Kilo Foxtrot Seven Delta Uniform Foxtrot.:wiggle:
 
Congrats and 73's de VE3YET (formerly G1YET).

Currently 'off air' due to no antennas erected and not well enough to put them up anymore.
 
Yep, congrats Roger.
I grew up surrounded by rigs and wires and so many QSL cards that I felt guilty for not pursuing the hobby.
Dad was VE4AF (1933--yep, #6 licensed in western Canada before they split the prairie prov. calls into 3 parts) , then VE2OJ, then VE7DFY (now a silent key). It kept him happy and busy for over 60 years. May it give you the same pleasure!

Well done Roger!

G8VLR (licenced 1979)

Used to build a lot of my gear but not been active for a few years...but maybe the next time I fell a little bored with Fs I'll fire up some 70cms or 6m or 4m????

Roger.

Most decent-sized communities have one, or more, clubs or informal groups. Like the Flight Sim world the members are happy to help each other and 'newbies'. Whether it's coaching/tutoring for the tests or equipment purchase & setup you'll find someone that can guide you through the steps.

If no one here can point you directly (or offers themself) go to the Amateur Radio Relay League website http://www.arrl.org/ and search their club listings.

(59 clubs found in state NC, listed alphabetically by city - there were two I saw specifically in the Chapel Hill area)
