His passion is to see more people introduced to the hobby at a young age as he says "Its a benefit to them even if they don't continue to pursue the pastime" Ron says, "I really enjoy working with people in the course, I enjoy their excitement as they learn". Ron adds "there are exciting prospects for young persons

entering amateur radio to use the hobby as a launch pad to a career in the Electronics Industry". Outside of Amateur Radio he's a real science fiction fan, movies and books. His favorite author is the late Isaac Asimov - particularly in science fact books. When he has time he writes computer software and teaches Radio, Electronics, Math and Physics.
