Radio

One of many passions is radio. I don't get on the air as much as I'd like to, but when I do, I like listening. I use various Recievers from Radio Shack to AOR scanners. My favorite at the moment is possibly the Yaesu VX-2. Its small design lends itself well to being a very portable setup for listening to local repeaters and even shortwave. The stock antenna works very well were I am, and I Generally don't have a need (yet) for using it with something larger like a Nagoya. Listed below is some of the radios I use.

Web Design

Making the internet a better place is not just a job, it's also a hobby. I like tweaking and changing things for the better and that includes the web.
