Thanks!!!
My brain hurts though - the exam was pretty challenging, especially in the way they asked the questions. The stuff you think you know, you end up questioning whether you really DO know it or not ...
But, I'm glad it's all over and done with
Just have to wait for the WIA and ACMA to do their thing now and process the paperwork

Like YOU had any doubts??? I was too sick with worry to even have anything to eat beforehand
I believe they'll announce the passes on this Sunday's WIA news...

I would ...
But 2-letter calls still aren't being issued yet. Supposedly sometime in the new year the WIA will be taking over the callsign allocation as part of their arrangement with ACMA, but until that happens, 2-letter calls aren't available
