To anyone thinking of buying amateur radio equipment I would recommend getting at least the Foundation licence. It is VERY easy, and legitimises your use (TX) of the equipment and introduces you to an interesting bunch of people. Most towns have amateur radio clubs which will host the exam.

Congratulations on your achievements and welcome!
