I started in Amateur radio in the early '60s by a friend with the Voice of America in Greenville. I work a lot of VHF,UHF and 220. I have a Ten-Tec Omni VII on HF and enjoying it very much. My wife of 36 years is also a ham.

I enjoy collecting antique amateur radio gear. I like the older Hallicrafters radios.

I moved to Greensboro, NC in 1992 with my wife who was relocated here.

I'm presently a graphic artist and a veteran of 40 years in photojournalism. I'm self-employed as a digital photo restoration artist. I still shoot for the news media whenever I see something worthwhile. I also shoot mostly digital nowdays and really having fun exploring the new media. I enjoy taking my camera gear to the coast of North Carolina and shooting sunsets and landscapes.

My experiences as a Ham and a News Photographer are to many to tell here, but it's been great!

Along with being webmaster for a number of Ham related web sites in the area, I also have a weather station with interactive links at www.n4gvk.net I'm also involved with APRS/weather data on UI-View.

That's about it from Greensboro, NC. 73's
