Yup, that is where I was doing my practice tests about a year ago. I was consistently getting in the mid-upper 90's on the Tech, but my grades on the General were still too variable and there were topics I wanted to understand better. I want to sit for both at the same time. Then vacation started and I just haven't gotten back to it.

techtrek, this link should take you to one of the best free online HAM testing practice sites. The tests are public information and openly published in several different forms. It's a great Hobby...lots of fun, especially while camping. http://www.qrz.com/hamtest/

Several hams here, I'm a ham wanna-be, I'm sure the others will slap me around a bit now since I still haven't sat for the exams...

We just did Pueblo, the Springs, and Denver in July. The wife, (XYL) that's a HAM Radio term of endearment, I know there must be other HAMS out there. The XYL (AKA-my off duty supervisor) grew up just outside of Denver. We went back to check out the old stomping grounds. Her grade school is now a church! We may very well return next July...hey...maybe we should form us up a Rally!

Welcome to the Forum!
We're in the Springs as well. Still haven't snapped up a Pod yet but getting much closer! After spending 14 nights in a tent this Summer, my wife is ready.
