Biography

I originally got into ham radio so that I could fly tracking transmitters in high power rockets. Since then, I've participated in a number of ham radio activities including satellite communications, fox hunting, emergency comms, VHF/UHF weak signal, HF, digital modes, APRS, balloon tracking, repeater site building, contesting, JOTA support, and so on.

I was President of the High Desert Amateur Radio Group in Central Oregon from 2011 through 2014 and I've been an active participant in the local ARES group.
