I worked for a small company outta San Diego call McAdams Electronics. Run by a colorful fella named Frank McAdams. Built Distortion Analysers and W&F analysers. Later became Burks Electronics. Later went belly up as consumer electronics and audio nose-dived in the late 70's early 80's.

Sound company was my own. Thru contacts in audio business bought my stuff pretty cheap. Used Cerwin Vega speakers, Phase Linear amps (knew the design engineer, he started with McAdams), and Tascam mix console. My last stab at fun and games before I came to realise I need to go back to college for the rest of my EE degree. Hooked up with a band in San Diego and eventually went on the west coast circuit. Ended up in Portland, Oregon where I finally packed it in and returned to San Diego and later San Luis Obispo to finish my degree.

Now I am in the oil business training field engineers....go figure.

To be wild again!
