Member Bio

Located in Surfside Beach South Carolina. Im on the edge of city limits to Myrtle Beach SC and two blocks from the Atlantic Ocean. Original call sign KD4JTU as Novice and upgraded to Extra three months later to AD4TH. I enjoy CW, Voice and Digital modes. Became an OMISS member in 2023 and really enjoy the nets.

I was employed at the local electric utility as a lineman for 37 years retring as an operations supervisor for distribution line crews in 2015. I then started and electrical lineman program at the local technical college, Horry Georgetown Technical College and I still am a professor for the program. The career was/is fantastic and the lineman brotherhood is a life experience I will always cherish.
