So true, When I took my Extra exam I am sorry to say I lucked out.  The
examiner said "I don't know how you did it but you got 4 out of 5 correct"
I almost aced the written and only suffered thru the code to pass the exam.
After I got home I said to myself "I can do better than that" and got on
20meter cw and never looked at phone again. There's something to be said for
barely passing.
