As soon as I get my license back, I'd be very interested.
I studied with the No-Nonsense guides available from Bob Romanchik KB6NU. Since you likely know most of the material, it should be a snap. Just google KB6NU. You can look under the licensing and training section of the ARRL web site for test sessions near you. One thing I found hard to understand is how people make friends on ham radio. Being Aspie, making friends is not my strong suit. I don't even know what nets are out there, out of what I've heard so far there was like one that was open.
Once I get another job, I'd like to advance my license more. Still, one thing I miss is that on Saturday nights on a local repeater, we had our "Saturday Knights of the Round Table" where we'd chat about everything from politics to computers to cars to World War II stories and so on. I miss that, I'd like to get that going again.
