My forte right now is Digital Audio, I can make an ENCO DAD system do most anything. Hobbies include: Tube Audio, Bike Riding, BASIC Stamp Computers, and building digital clocks. Personal details: I have a son, Joe, and a daughter, Lori. My dad gave me my first tape recorder, a Wilcox-Gay, when I was about 10. I learned a lot about wiring from him, as he was an HO Model Railroader, and built very elaborate switching panels for his layouts. I also got into Citizen's Band (back when we used Call Letters instead of handels!) and Amateur Radio. I got the broadcasting bug, and landed my first job at WOND at age 18. I was involved with a 9 line BBS up until the Internet killed them all about 1996 - it was called ACADEMIA, originally started with Ken Tompkins, WB2PUW, at Stockton State College. it gave lots of people their first online experiences. Right now having fun on the net and learning to make web pages.” Tom's Web Page LINK
