Thanks for that! You're right, I don't have a license! Long long ago I had a third class commercial license, probably about the same level of challenge. But now my partner's son is an electrical engineering major in college. He's doing OK but some practical reinforcement wouldn't hurt. We do sometimes go out bike riding together. Here in the mountains cell phone coverage is quite spotty. Of course, radio probably won't work much better! But at that price, the learning process becomes affordable!
