Since we can't update the "About me" field, I thought I'd put some information here.
I'm a retired electrical engineer, having spent the majority of my career in communications. I hold 32 US patents, mostly on communications subjects.
Although it was not the focus of my career work, I have a decent knowledge of power distribution, both in the US and internationally, especially for residential service. I also have some knowledge of three-phase and single-phase electric motors and their control systems, but mostly only smaller motors maybe up to 10HP.
After I retired, I took classes in woodworking and developed some level of skill. I've taught woodworking classes, short courses, in veneering, carving, dovetails, and box-making. I’ve built a lot of furniture for our home, to the point where my wife told me she doesn’t have room for any more in our house😊
My wife, Judy, and I travel a couple of times a year and I document our trips on our blog, www.mikeandjudytravel.com

@MotherOfPoodles - You should definitely see the Taj Mahal. That, by itself, was worth the trip. Varanasi was also interesting. (View Post)2 -
The Ghan Train
Has anyone done the Ghan train in Australia? If you were going to Australia for a Tauck tour, this might be an interesting add-on. https://www.cnn.com/travel/australia-luxury-train-ghan-outback-hnk-i… (View Post)1
