I’m an Amateur Radio operator, also known as HAM Radio, with the FCC Call sign KE6PIJ. I have an Extra class license, which is the highest class available. My wife, Deb, holds a Technician class license and her call sign is KB1DEB. We both belong to ARES and RACES, enjoy contesting, and emergency service. I’m originally from the California Bay Area and moved to central Maine in 2002.

Other than Amateur Radio, I’ve been involved in electronics, mathematics, software development, and enjoy camping, fishing, food, talking around the fire on a Summer night. My wife and I enjoy video games, particularly Minecraft and Fortnite. We also host a fundraiser once a year where we game (Minecraft) for 24 hours to raise money and awareness for Children’s Miracle Network through Extra-Life!
