I am a former member of the U.S. Army Signal Corps, MOS 31J20 (Teletypewriter and Facsimile Equipment Repair). I trained at Ft. Gordon, GA at the Southeastern Signal School in 1972 and was later stationed with STRACOM, Ft. Richie, MD. In addition to Amateur Radio, I enjoy photography, hiking, camping and swimming.

My OM and I are both members of Oregon District 3 ARES. We are also charter members and active with WRRL.
