Not for nothing but I got my novice and tech license in grade school.

I didn't know what the hell I was doing. Looking back it was basically brain dumping (and learning code well enough to pass the 5WPM test).

Ended up getting 13WPM and general and advanced in 7th grade.

I still have my license, just renewed it a couple months ago. But haven't keyed up in maybe 15 years. Ain't nobody got time for that. I just got a little handheld transceiver on temu and haven't used it at all.

My local 2m is just old guys talking about Trump/conservative politics and their health conditions sadly.

You don't need to know Morse code any longer for the exam, btw.
