My Ham radio setup

Welcome to the web site of Michael P. O'Connor (KB3HCG) of Cockeysville MD, formerly of Pittsburgh PA, I would one day like to return to Pittsburgh, it is such a great city.

This is my little corner of the internet. Here I will host my blog, and 2 other domains (my Ham radio blog, and my makers blog)

If you are seeing this site and were expecting my blog I have redone the layout of the site, the blog is now at http://blog.mikeoconnor.net. I am hoping that the new design of the site will allow me more flexibility to add more things in the future. I have recently redone the blog section of the web site, to be self coded and not using pre-written php code. To make maintaining this site easier I have mounted the web server folder to my local Linux box using sshfs so I can just use cp and emacs to work on the site from my local computer.

Here is a great view of the city of Pittsburgh from the west side at night.

In the early 2000's (from 2001 to 2003) I worked in The School of Computer Science Operations, we had a program on an old DEC computer connected to some temperature monitors, one day the one outside was failing and gave an erroneous reading so I had to get a screen capture of it./retro/hell.html
