[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 536305, member: 84"] Star, you just described nursing school. :rofl: Ok, so the [B]speed[/B] isn't there at first.............but yeah, it's very similar. by the way docs can be major A holes, and seem to enjoy being that way to nurses, especially difficult child docs who aren't very bright. I was wondering perhaps if I could try to do it if an ad came up in our paper. Then you mentioned all those codes......... But if I spot an ad I might just give it a try. I mean, all they could do is say I don't make the cut. Friends of mine used to record things they had to memorize (like those codes) and play them to and from school, play them when they went shopping, play them when they were cleaning the house.......Play them anytime they couldn't sit with their nose in a book. If I'd had a recorder and a way to play it in the car, I might have too. Because hearing it over and over again tends to make it stick. As for the radio, it comes by itself. I'm sure it's waaaaay busier than a HAM radio frequency, but when I first started that hobby at about 10 all I heard was static for the first week. Then I could make out a few words. (they have their own jargon too) By about the 3rd /4th week I was yakking to folks all over the country like talking on the telephone. But I know what you mean.........I listen to police scanners and it sounds sort of like a Charlie Brown cartoon with the adults talking. LOL How long is your training? by the way, sounds like you're doing ok. You never really feel like you know this stuff until you get used to having to pull it out of your brain when you need it. Proud of you Starbie. :) Hugs [/QUOTE]
