Yes, I've been hamming for ten years now. I recommend taking the general exam at the same time as technician. There are a lot of overlapping concepts between the two. Even if you don't pass, it let's you know what you're up against.

I'm taking it online and I don't think they'll let me follow the tech with the general. I do plan to take the general ASAP though

That's interesting. I didn't know that online testing was as option. I had to drive 5 hours to get to my testing site, so I knocked out all three at the same time. I studied for the technician and extra and just kind of winged the general.

Taking the general is a good move. HF is way funner than VHF.

Good luck.

I didn't know online testing was a thing either.

There's a benefit to finding your local club.
