The general license opens you up to a huge world of airwaves. When I
got mine and went on the air it was great. For years I was stuck on
tech local 2m/70cm.

You know it took a long time myself to get my General. For the longest time
I got stuck because I just could not learn morse code, at least not good enough to pass that element. I was only have to get my General, when they dropped the code requirement.

Sadly, I really have not had a chance to do much with it. Too many other things have taken up my time and money.



... No matter where you go, there you are.

Same thing. I lost the other end of my dipole when the mast broke in 2018, and with everything else going on I haven't had the chance to get back to HF since.

I don't even have my radio in my car, nor do I carry my HT. I am air-wave less

Yeah the wife never left me put on in the car either. Not that it matters
too much since I work from Home. Hell, I had to pair down stuff to a few
HTs. We went RVing for 3 years so it just made sense. When we decided to settle back down, I just haven't had time to do anything serious, even
though we been living here at least 2 years.
