I am retired from 33 years in electronics for over fifteen years, now. I taught electronics for the State of Kentucky for 12 years, and was self employed for 18 years. I enjoy Amateur Radio and the computer. I became a ham in 1985 with a Novice Class liscense. I held my Novice Class liscense until 1993 when I earned my Extra Class. I worked CW only during this 8 year period as Novice Class and worked all States except Hawaii and Alaska, and many countries around the world. I work some SSB, but no digital modes at this time. Mostly CW. So, as you can see, I am an old "Brass Pounder" at heart.
