DK:
I'm self taught. 25 years in USMC grunt and Recon units did not afford me much in electronic education, although it did give me a good education in shortwave propagation. BUT I had an innate sense of what I knew and did not know, and how and where to go to learn what I did not know.

My point is, you get smarter by finding "real deal" radio-men and being worthy of their company. AND read! There is a wealth of stuff out there that helps rock-apes like me learn how to be better at radios.

We ALL asked dum questions early in our radio-hobby adventure. ALL of us!!!

AND your questions are neither dumb nor are they tedious. Do continue to ask them!!

This site is an excellent source for knowledge. Keep coming back, and keep asking the questions!!
