Many of us are involved in, or looking into joining the WPI Wireless club on campus. Additionally, a few more students are looking at taking the licensing exam in a few weeks. It has been great fun (10 radios arrived on campus today. There are now 11 of the same radio floating around in the lab tuned in to the WPI repeater...)

1 hour of study and two days of practice, that's not bad but then if you did that after build season you probably know half of it anyways, at least the theory and electronics engineering part of it, still that's pretty good.

I'm probably going to go for it soon before severe weather season starts as I am in canwarn up here as well as working in news so it would be nice to have.
