I'm retired now, but still feeling young and loving to learn. By education I'm a Chemical Engineer, but my employment was in IT. I've been a programmer, systems analyst, business analyst, project team leader, project manager, IT Architect and CyberSecurity Manager over the years. IT has also been my hobby since I was introduced to a 4-bit computer with 256bytes of memory in 1976.\n\nYou could say I'm a geek and I'd tell you I was proud to be one!\n\nThis blog allows me to keep track of my hobby. I'll record interesting facts about my use of amateur radio, associated projects and some of my history with the hobby. I hope you find it interesting.","pronouns":"","is_following":false,"is_you":false,"following_count":4,"discover_count":0},"author":{"name":"Chris McMahon","url":"https://g6fci.micro.blog/","avatar":"https://avatars.micro.blog/avatars/2026/12/1892348.jpg"},"items":[{"id":"91233752","content_html":"<p><a href=\"http://loreandordure.com\">@loreandordure.com</a> Reasons to be sleepy here - 3 thunderstorms with heavy rain overnight.
