Biography

1981 Motorola Communications Pty.Ltd. Johannesburg, South Africa - Factory Manager (Quality Engineer)

I enjoy fishing and SCUBA diving. I used to fly small single engine airplanes in the Bahamas. I have been a Yacht Master (Ocean) for 32 years and love to sail. Now ashore I play radio, facet gemstones and cook ethnic food.

I prefer to have QSOs about life experiences, technical radio mysteries and friendship.

Recently on PSK31, JT65, SSTV for a try. HF phono is still my favourite. My mentor - Steve - VY1SK

Living in Stewart, BC, Canada is a challenge due to high mountains, shoulder to shoulder. Bands are usually very quiet.

Thanks for looking me up!
