    AA> Would the turn out for a ham license be that large? I can't   
    AA> imagine the hobby to be so popular among new people.   
      
     It depends. The Question Pools for the 3 exams change every   
   4 years, each one on a different cycle. The changes are for the   
   changes in rules or technology. The exams cover Part 97 of the   
   FCC rules, plus frequencies, modes, good amateur practice, RF    
   safety, and electronic theory. It gets more complicated the   
   higher license you go for.   
      
     I've already got 5 folks signed up for the October 23 session.   
      
    AA> Perhaps those people would enjoy a How To BBS workshop.   
      
     I did plug my BBS at a hamfest 2 years ago...it was the last   
   big one before Covid-19 shut everything down.   
      
    AA> I would take them in a heartbeat (sans atrial flutter).   
      
     Nice pun.   
      
    AA> Too bad AK, USA is bit too far from ON, CAN.   
      
     Actually, AK is Alaska...AL is Alabama...AZ is Arizona,   
   and AR is Arkansas.    
      
    AA> Your body is finding an adjustment as you work to avoid the   
    AA> foods that trigger problems.  Keep that up.  Eventually, the   
    AA> headaches would go away if you honor the limits that your body   
    AA> can cope with right now.   
      
     I spent too much time at the computer today, rebuilding the   
   Windows 10 registry (which had gotten royally corrupted), and   
   having to reinstall a ton of programs. My eyes are really giving   
   me fits right now...but I'm trying to finish stuff before a line   
   of strong thunderstorms with a strong cold front get here. There   
   were several reports of tornadoes in Wisconsin Monday evening.   
      
    AA> At one point I was getting what someone else told me they call   
    AA> silent headaches. It's when you suddenly see double-vision or   
    AA> strange white specks in front of your eyes or can't see quite   
    AA> right out of one eye.   
      
     I've had floaters for years, and I'm on the alert for signs of   
   a detached retina. I used to get flashes of light in the eyes as   
   well.

   ... My day is ruined when I put my left sock on my right foot.
