    A Key Design

    I am a long time licensed Amateur Radio operator. Call sign W5EHS. I first started building electronics projects about age 10 in 1956. After my active Navy military service in 1969. an ET CPO John Petrec, W8BNO (SK), mentored me and gave me my novice operator test,

    Now 56 years after my first radio license, and 69 years electronics experience, I am still fiddling with radio stuff.

    A long time fellow ham. Jim Frank KW5CW was in my Youngstown, Ohio – Mahoning Valley Amateur Radio Association (MVARA club) back in my early radio days. WE are both now in the Dallas, Texas area and of course keep in close contact. Jim asked me to help design/build this project.

One was political, with pictures of Trump and Musk, probably an anti-tarriff posting from China. I didn’t try to translate.

    This blog is a “design effort” within itself. I will certainly be “fussing” with the design look and feel as well as trying to decide what content should be here. So my first design effort mentioned here, will be the Quantum Design itself.
