Biography

Hi my name is Dan and I was a former Jet Engine mechanic in the U.S. Air Force and was in the I.T. industry for around 20 years and I now spend my time at home with my son. I'm always doing some kind of fixing up this old house and learning about new and old tech stuff. I also enjoy having conversations about things in general that peak my interest. I also have a YouTube channel where I cover all sorts of radio related topics from coming back into shortwave radio listening a few years ago to now becoming an amateur radio operator. Well it is better late than never.
