Dedicated to world-wide self-aggrandizement since 1994

2024: Just moved this again. Went from chinet.com to whoever took over Randy's stuff (long before he died), then to at least two commercial shell providers then to a Canada-based company in 2023 that just sold that part of their business to another Canadian company a few months back. Yikes. Same old crappy HTML, some of which is still from the dawn of time. Updates as I care to make them.

So much cruft. Started to update things then decided to start over. Mostly.

    • The 1990s editor (me!) hadn't yet discovered the old paper issues yet, so these newsletters were unnamed.

  • I was the Associate Editor for Arkansas as part of the Public Safety Southeast department of the Scanner Journal, put out by the Radio Communications Monitoring Association (RCMA), from 1990 to about 1996 when they dissolved. I think I have ASCII versions of those ... somewhere. I also do similar columns for The Lowdown, put out by the Longwave Club of the Americas, and for DX Monitor, put out by the International Radio Club of America.
