  Thanks for stopping by my webpage. My name is Tom and I live near Owen Sound, Ontario, Canada. I have been a licensed amateur radio operator since 1989 and currently operate DX, take part in our club events and run courses to license new hams. That is in addition to being a dad and a granddad of two boys, one is 7 the other is 4. I am retired from a 30 year career at a local power utility where during that time maintained electronic and pneumatic control system in an industrial plant environment. I also maintained and calibrated plant test equipment like pressure calibrators, relay test sets and various measurement devices. During that time I earned an industrial electrician qualification and a fire alarm system technician qualification. Towards the end of my time there I was the lead hand for a crew of 12 electricians and control personnel concerned with facilities management and the maintenance of a small 3 boiler oil fired steam plant. At retirement my wife and I built a new home where we reside now. 
Thanks for looking   73.
