Congratulations Ithyca! Many years ago I earned a private pilots license.  An older, retired airline pilot, from Hungary, told me, "That’s a great accomplishment but, you'll be better served viewing it as a license to learn".   

You now have full access to radioland...enjoy your exploration.

Congratulations to our granddaughter Ithyca, KI5QOS. She passed the Amatuer Extra exam today in less than 15 minutes with only studying for 4 DAYS!!! 

She starts her junior year in a few days at Lyon with the Prestigious Arkansas Governor's scholarship again. She finished her sophomore year on the Dean's list, and has been working a side job for as she says "her own earned money" !

 

We could not be more proud of her! 

 

Yes, next up is grandson Nicholas KI5QQH. He is studying now for his Extra. Also as proud of him as he finished the 8th grade on the honor roll list. High school, look out, here he comes!

 

Proud and so very blessed Parents, Grand and Great Grandparents!
