I've recently become interested in radio, despite having no background in any form of engineering or any other STEM discipline. I crammed for my Technical, but am slowing down to try to actually learn the field well before taking my General. It's fascinating, but the learning curve for me is sharp. It reminds me of when I dove face-first into GNU/Linux and Emacs in my twenties. That was a thrill, but I had a lot more time to dedicate to it. I suppose in my life I keep being drawn to these vertiginous technical challenges that don't become fun until you absorb a fair amount of knowledge: audio production, Unix, Emacs, roguelikes, SuperCollider, Chess, Go. Guess I like a challenge :)
