Got my antenna up to 32 feet and have been CQing. Contacted North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Arizona, Edmonton Canada, and California. Works much better hope the covenants in Carson River don't make me take it down.

I passed the element 4 test last Saturday (February 24th). Which means I am now an amateur extra ham operator and have all frequency privileges

I 'subbed' last week for 4 days while the teacher was recuperating from pneumonia. The kids got to know me and me them. She didn't have any 'sub' notes, so I 'winged' it for the most part. She did come in the first couple of days and gave me some work sheets to copy off;but we got along pretty good and they learned something, I hope!!!
