General class book

Hey gang,

I'm thinking about upgrading my license. Does anyone have any general class study material they'd be willing to part with?

The question pool for general has recently been chamged, so the study aids I have are outdated. For morse code, I reccomend the Koch Method software by G4FON (freeware), and Numorse (shareware). I used both to get my head copy speed up to 25WPM! I have since been lazy, and over the past year dropped to 18WPM.

Make sure you learn how to read schematics, especially transistors and logic gates. Also, make sure you study up on the band limits!
