Ham Radio / Video

Since high school, I have been into radio scanning. in 1996 I bought a study guide for ham radio. I believe it was the “No-Code” edition from Radio Shack. That is the test change that let non-morse code kids get a ham ticket.

It took me 21 years and Hurricane Harvey to get serious about getting my FCC license. Thanks to my wife for the surprise birthday gift! My first radio was a Baofeng walkie-talkie radio. Ham radio has been a good learning experience.

The video in this post is a combination of my video production merging with my ham radio hobby. Baofeng was looking for some product videos from youtube and we were happy to put this video together.

Frank Lloyd Wright Origami Chair

Posted by Perrin Derrick On F j, Y

Back in 2006 my wife and I went to Las Vegas for wedding video training. This was a long road trip with a few sweet stops. We stopped by Frank Lloyd Wright’s western headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona. This was the first time for me to sit in a Frank Lloyd Wright Origami Chair. The other name for the seat is the “upholsterer chair”
