SUMMARY
I have been employed in the electronics industry all of my working life and have been a field
based engineer for most of it, I have a very good rapport with customers and management. I
have been a licensed radio amateur since 1972, and have built and aligned transmitter and
receiver projects over the years. .I am on the committee of the South Dorset Repeater Group
and have helped with the maintenance of our VHF and UHF RF Analogue repeaters. We have
had many problems with other RF sources at our repeater site causing problems with our
repeaters and I have assisted in solving these problems. I always ensure that any job I do is
done correctly, and take great pride in my work. I enjoy driving and cover a large area of the
South West for my present employers. I am on call 24/7 one week in three. I am good at DIY
and have rebuilt a kitchen and a bathroom.
