Yeah, I totally agree. I got it because during the NJQRP Skeeter Hunt contest
last year (was also today, coincidentally), I kept hearing people just below
where generals could go. So I figured between that, and having the shorter
call, it was worth it for my occasional contest or for getting into pileups
more easily.

But once I started studying the extra material, I realized that it was the
first exam level material that was really interesting.
