I'm completely new to Ham radio, having obtained my General Class ticket in Spring 2012.

My interest in radio is not new.  When I was a teenager in the 1970s, I spent a lot of time toying with shortwave, CB, and scanner radios.  I fully intended to move on into Amateur, but life and decades somehow got past me. 

I never lost the fascination for radio... the glow of a radio in a cold dark room, the smell of the radios warming the air, falling asleep to the sounds of HF noise on an old Hallicrafters.

So now I'm living the old dream.
