Biography

I am 69 years old and retired. I have been licensed since 1955. I have two children and three grandchildren. My wife and I reside in Beacon Falls, CT. next to the Naugatuck State Forest. I enjoy reading, gardening, and bird watching.
I worked for 43 years at Sikorsky Aircraft, maker of the Blackhawk helicopter. I have held positions as a helicopter maintenance instructor, logistics manager, and avionics integration engineer.
I enjoy working 20 and 30 meter PSK primarily, and other digital modes when I can find someone who's using them on the bands.
