Re: getting your license

The only problem is, how do I test for an FCC license from Afghanistan?

  Just like anywhere else in the world - get together three
  Volunteer-Examiner-certified hams and they administer the test
  and report back to the FCC by electronic posting.

  It;s do-able.....

(I will send my location in a separate email....OPSEC after all)

I've been working the problem, and my plan is to go to the base nearby and
see if I can scrounge up any MARS operators. I know of one, but he's just a
Technician Plus. On the plus side, I'll be back in the states sometime in
March...ish, maybe, so I can always study, build and study, then test and
start operating!

Oh, and to the list: thanks! I received an absurd number of replies...thanks
a bunch! All of you shall be granted fiefdoms in the New World Order™...if
you were previously given one from the previous thread, you will instead be
awarded a lifetime supply of CornNuts. Personally, *I *can't think of
anything better...

Beep!
