Web Page--Formerly Know As AJ4II

       Also Formerly Know as  KJ4ADU

Born and raised in eastern Tennessee, near the Smoky Mountains. I have been interested in radio and electronics since I was old enough to tear up my Dads drill at age 6. My first brush with the law was at age 12, when the FCC came to my house to arrest me. I was operating a homemade AM radio station (about 5 watts), using the cable TV ground as an neighborhood antenna. The guys in black suits had come to the house to arrest an adult person---Not some little kid !

 
 I am a Electrical and Mechanical Engineer with 30+ years in  industrial Automation, CNC, PLC, Robotics and machine integration and Power Systems. I also have a Commercial First Class Radio Telephone license. I got these many years ago while working at a local AM radio station.
 

I now have a new Vanity call sign-- K3PB. Yes, I realize I am not located in "3" land, but this call was held by a Tennessean for many years and I wanted to keep it in Tennessee.

I am in the process of converting this web page (of an engraving business I own) to my new Ham page. So this page may look a little strange.

industrial engraving, engraved instrument plates, medical engraving,    engraved push button and switch plates,  special engraved plates.
