Not only do I spend a lot of time with my business, I also love to help out in several volunteer positions. You will probably find me at most DMA Computerfests, The DARA Hamvention, Scout Camporees and Troop Campouts.

Here are some field day photos I took this year.

2005 Field Day Photos

I spend my free time working the satellites and some of the VHF Contests. Currently I have been doing web page designs and just completed the Xenia Special Event Station commemoration of the 25th Anniversary of the Xenia Tornado. If you have an interest in having a web page designed or hosted, let me know.
