Ham Radio, Will I pick it up again?

Looks like theres no morse requirement anymore starting next month for upgraded licenses. In the past learning Morse was lazily keeping me from upgrading my license. Now that I don’t have to worry about it, maybe ill upgrade and pick the hobby back up. ARRLWeb: It’s Official! Morse Code Requirement Ends Friday, February 23 NEWINGTON, CT, Jan 24, 2007 — Circle Friday, February 23, on your calendar. That’s when the current 5 WPM Morse code requirement will officially disappear from the Amateur Radio Service Part 97 rules in accordance with the FCC’s Report and Order (R&O) in the “Morse code proceeding,” WT Docket 05-235.

Weekend Stuff - Ham

Got a lot of shopping done this weekend. Only need to buy for my dad, my mom, Sammi’s dad, more stuff for Kylie, and more for Sammi. Had a wonderful Sunday with Kylie. We just hung out together, it was a lot of fun, she’s getting so big and so smart, its like hanging out with a good friend. I was a bit depressed leaving her on Sunday, but of course I get to see her again tonight.
