After many years of holding the Technician class amateur radio license, last Sunday I passed the General exam at the Ham Radio University event in Bethpage, NY.
I've had the Yaesu FT-817 for nearly a year now, and now I can put it to greater use. Of course, now I must device a clever way of getting a useful signal out of my faraday cage abode.

I had a bit of a "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" moment when this was revealed in my mailbox today. After reading in the New York Times that these invitations were published in Brooklyn, NY - nearby, it piqued my interest, but I had no idea that they had printed one for me. The printers worked around the clock to produce these and they are wonderful. Assuming mine is not lost or damaged, I will very likely keep it in a prominent location.
I intend to put my support behind the man I believe can inspire our country to do great things.
UPDATE: This is definitely a commemorative souvenir, not an invitation to anything not normally open to the public. I'm still quite pleased that this presidency is as inclusive as it is.
