    Hello everybody!

    I am heading for Dublin in the morning for my Ham exam. I am expecting a big fat fail due to memory issues, but it will help be refine my study. Of course the day the exam is now, there is a rain event on with floods expected. So I may become a boat :)

    I am slightly optomistic but still booked for the May exam. One way or another, I will get it

    I find that's almost always the case with exams... :-/

    But... each time one gets more and more prepared for the next time!

    I'm sure you will. I am hoping by then I'll have some sort of a HF station
    up and running. Ireland is usually pretty easy for me to work during
    greyline even when conditions aren't the best on 20 or 40.

    Could be worse. You could forget how to get there.

    Good luck on the exam...even if you end up being maritime mobile. :)

    One ham likes to go for a swim in the afternoon at his QTH, so he
    says he's checking into the net "maritime mobile" (hi hi).
