Congrats! I never quite got that far, myself. A neighbor has a classic weighted dipole on a girder mast, (did they used to mass produce those things in sets?) and I guess a long line, but I've never actually met him so I don't know what else he might be interested in.

Yes, it is lot of fun and not so hard. I got all three amateur licenses in a week. If you are in USA, just use hamstudy.org- this is great for prepping for the exam.
Next project is to build this: uBitx v6. It is a decently priced HF radio for the DIY people.

I am learning morse code too, you can transmit long distances without using much power. The dark lord definitely should know morse code. A dark lord digital communication protocol is next in line!

Started with OSdev around 2020, but have been into ham radio since 2016
Got my local (Polish) calls SQ8VPS and SQ8L back then and the US call AD2BZ in 2021. What is your callsign?
