 I
enjoy building equipment as much or more than actually
operating. Several of my creative endeavors have been documented in various amateur publications. I have provided pictures of many of my
recent projects. I have done some unusual things like
bouncing microwave signals off of the moon on 10 GHz. The
picture shows me at my "nostalgia station", all
equipment available new when I was first licensed in 1966. I've been an Extra Class
Amateur and First Class Commercial Radiotelephone licensee since 1968. My
"glorious" peak of activity was in 1994, when I was Central States VHF Society
President and sponsored the Society annual conference in
Memphis.
Along the way I also obtained an FCC First Class Ratiotelephone Operator License (now General
Radiotelephone Operator License). I also hold the Ship Radar Endorsement. I
used my license to service two way radio equipment as well as to operate an AM/FM
broadcast station (WMPS). |
