First licensed in 1977. Cat lover (pic is of the "Shop Cat" when I was at the FL DOT). I'm 99.9 percent a digital op and on HF most of the time. Have tried about every digital mode that exists over the years. Was heavily into HF and VHF packet radio, and ran a dual port gateway on a Xerox 820 computer. Started using computers in the days of DOS 3.3 and WIN 3.1. Love testing/tweaking new software.
