I don't recall that he ever mentioned any time in the military. Just from reading
his articles, but certainly not all them, i gather his experience was in broadcasting
and as a technical writer. Also didn't he have something to do with producing
technical training films? And then into publishing. He did "S9" CB magazine
before Pop Com. I betcha any "Old Crows" connection is "honorary".

Rich, not to be mean, or actually, "overly" mean, hi,  do you think Tom could
discuss SWR issues and antenna gain like Kurt? I don't think Kurt ever
adopted the hipster routine, either. -Hue
