Just wanted to say hello

I retired from the US Department of Defense. Prior to that career, I was a broadcast engineer. I was involved in Directed Energy weapons R&D, then aerospace engineering. After retiring, I opened a business where I was involved in alternative energy projects and EVs. After moving to my present location, I built a machine shop and became involved in the design and prototyping of EVs, LSV/NEVs, and subsystems for startup EV companies. I was a Factory level OEM, until I closed that down in December
