[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2434140, member: 807"] The Radar stuff is what I cut my teeth on, not maritime, but Military Autotrack. After I got out of the USAF, I worked at Lear Seigler at their component overhaul and repair center here in OKC. I worked everything that came in house from airborne radio and radar to rebuilding servo motors. they were a sweat shop for sure, paid next to nothing, but that was just after the space program shutdown when NASA engineers couldn't find a job. I went to work for Ma Bell and the rest is history. One of the jobs I went into with Bell required a commercial FCC license. When I put in for it, they told me I wasn't qualified, as I had to have the FCC license. I produced my license and they wanted to know how I got it since they hadn't sent me to their cheat school in Dallas that taught the test. They couldn't believe that someone could just go down and take the test and pass. They obviously didn't understand what close to 3,000 classroom hours of electronics meant. [/QUOTE]
