1910, commercial and amateur licenses, member Society of Wireless 
Pioneers. Operated spark and continuous wave. He used to operate from 
his Buick with his Vibroplex splayed across the front bench seat as 
shown in the photo . Flawless Morse a pleasure to speak to. I worked him 
as he went over the Tobin Bridge. He never missed a dot. Member of First 
Class CW Club. He purchased the Mackay Radio Palos Verdes transmitter 
site in 1945. It became the Wallace Ranch.

He also had a 300 watt FM mobile station in his Buick, he could hold the
