I'm all right on the medical stuff (but will never stop training) but I'm little slow when it comes to the radio. Well I just need a good talking to. All the frequencies, knobs and displays are confusing as hell not to mention that I'm a Polak as well <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I wish I could get involved but time constrains push me back. But I did manage to speak to local HAM organziation during police show but i was too busy with patients to jog down their info. Anyway yes you are right there is no substitution for training and practice and getting involved.
