maybe that's the most interesting on repeaters, but if you get a general license and hop on HF it gets much more interesting IMO, cross county radio is fun, contesting, even on VHF/UHF it's really cool to play with DMR and linked repeaters systems, for example in Florida we have SARNET, a statewide repeater system which is super useful for talking around the state but also for emergencies / during hurricanes.
