Q2. Where does one go after beginning level? How does one break into the other side of the hobby?

A2. I think it's different for everyone, but for me:

Find an "Elmer" (is that right? or "Elsie"?) who is helpful and patient and knowledgable and ideally has some spare radios to borrow from time to time. I have been lucky to have had help from @kb6nu #W8TAM #K5HDL locally.

Attach the hobby to something you like - my #SDR helped by listening to #baseball
