My Other Hobbies

I have been a Licenced member of the amateur radio community since Jan 23, 1996. Before this however like many of the hams out there I had been involved in Citizens Band radio since 1969. In 1973 My father opened a radio shop in Winnipeg Manitoba where I started work as a technician doing repairs and instalations of radio equipment.
