Design of high-resolution side looking radar system used for selection of production radar design parameters at Goodyear Aerospace.
Design of production Air Data test equipment capable of providing Pitot and Static pressures with an accuracy of 3 feet of altitude, a pressure control resolution of 1 inch of air pressure at sea level, as well as simultaneous precision (1% accuracy) altitude and airspeed rates of up to 40,000 feet per minute and 500 knots per minute. Sperry Flight Systems.
Design of magnetic deflections systems for aircraft CRT displays including the F-15 Eagle aircraft. Sperry Flight Systems.
Design of the LCD Liquid Crystal Display backlight system for the TCAS (aircraft Traffic Collision Avoidance System). Honeywell.
Design of the LCD display backlight system for the new Boeing 777 aircraft.
Seven Patents released with one additional patent pending. Honeywell.

I spoke with Joe this morning at 5:30 AM via one of his four his remote base setups. He was hiking on Shaw Butte near Phx (in the dark with a flash light in one hand and an HT in the other, and had just finished his morning net with freinds in Adelaide, Australia) and was using an HT to access his base which then hooked into a repeater on Mingus Mt. The system in his Jeep uses CQ100 protocol and a laptop w/ a wifi card to do the same thing. Earlier this summer I spoke with Joe while he was wheelin' in the San Juans above Silverton. Again he was hooking into his remote base in Phx and then up to Mingus Mt.
Joe is not available on Tue evenings due to other commitments (Tue looks to be the chosen Expo Net night).
This will be a directed net using the Expo Net script and protocols.
With Tuesday not available for Joe, how about a Wednesday at 7:00 PM PDST?
He'd like a list of names and call signs of those participating so he doesn't have to try and write them down while answering questions.
