Past Experience
I have worked in the Television Broadcasting Industry as a Video Tape/Post Production/Studio Maintenance Engineer for about 35 years.
I started at NBC in Burbank in the 70s and went on to ABC Hollywood where I spent 18 years. I Built a Shopping Network Studio as an Independent Contractor. I worked for Criscraft Television when they were bought out by Fox Television. I worked over 16 years in this capacity. In my latter years, I worked Master Control, Technical Operations Center, and the News Room where I did editing of the On Air News product. This has been my professional experience.
All throughout my life, my personal interest has been with digital technology, Digital ICs as they emerged in the late 60s and Microprocessors in the early 70s. I soon discovered that I could create without lifting a soldering iron. I could make things run with a program and have it do the work. It's been all up hill and a pleasant rewarding struggle from there as I coursed my way through the different programming languages, networked systems together, and the joy of creating for the orld Wide Web when the Internet came along.
I have returned to Amateur Radio after letting my Ham license expire in the late 70's. I now have a General Class Amateur Radio Operator's License and was re-issued my original California call, WB6DDD.
Associations
Associations? I wish I had some. I seem to be alone here in the Ozarks. I have a friend who is also a web designer but he works with proprietary tools. He isn't old school like me so our work hasn't been able to merge.
Oh, by the way I do belong to the local Amateur Radio club. My call is WB6DDD/0

Education
I have many years of college courses in the study of Electronics and Programming. My more resent persuit of continuing education is with Lynda.com. Their on-line courses are very good and quite up to date.
