Biography

I got started in radios in 1971. Gary WA5FWC taught me alot about radios and antennas. Installing the 4-element quad July 2023 made things easier on 10 meters. My quad is up 20 meters, and my location is 360' above sea level.
I enjoy muscle cars and I own a 1967 Pontiac GTO. Auto racing is a big part of my life. At the beginning I drag raced on the streets in the Dallas & Ft Worth area. I moved on to organized "dirt" racing circle track in north Texas for many years. I eventually moved to asphalt circle track racing and was a crew chief in NASCAR short track for 3 years. Auto racing was alot of fun.
I included a photo of my great grand baby. She is 4 years old and she got her face painted in San Antonio Texas.
