Just remember that you need at least a general license (which requires
code)to utilize AirMail.



There is no more code testing in the USA...or most other countries on the
planet, in spite of the American Radio Relay League doing its best to try
to prevent code testing's demise. ALL amateur radio licenses, and there
are only 3 classes any more, are CODE TEST FREE.
