My Interests in Amateur Radio
and other things


... about me

  As a native of Hungary, I lived in Budapest until 1971 when I left with my XYL and spent one year in a refugee camp in Capua, Italy. We arrived in Cleveland, Ohio in 1972, bacame  US citizens and moved to Davenport, Iowa in December 1977. Relocated to Los Angeles, California on January, 1980.  Got my Amateur Radio Operator General Class license in 1984 with the call sign N6KNT.  In 1993 I upgraded to Extra Class with the call letters AB6ZE.  In 1992 we moved into our own house in a small town, Castaic. I selected our property based on a good location for my tower, which I erected in 1995. It's a 38' heavy duty US tower, the antenna is a Cushcraft 7 element tribander, the "Big Thunder X7". http://www.castaiclake.com/

 

... my work

I was trained as an electronics technician in Budapest and I specialized in   computer repair after graduating from Control Data Institute in Cleveland Ohio  in 1976-1977 and I've been a Computer Service Technician until I retired on May 1st 2008.
 

... my interests

Besides Amateur Radio I enjoy motorcycle riding, high power and clay target shooting, boating, general repair and playing chess.
