After seventeen classes, countless notes, and more than a few rediscovered fundamentals, I’m finally stepping back to reflect on the journey from curious newcomer to soon-to-be licensed amateur operator. This reflection captures what I learned, what surprised me, and why this experience has felt like coming home to the engineering roots that shaped my career.

My latest post in my series on studying for my Amateur Operating Certificate is up! Last night's class focused on station operation and was a BIG bite. I'm going to have to study this chapter a couple of times, I think, especially the Q-codes, which are stymying me.
