Hi,
Thanks John, for getting me registered. I have lurked here for a very long time and have benefited from some of the information Doug and others have posted. So firstly, let me express my sorrow at Dougs passing. I am sure he is missed by everyone who knew him.
Secondly, in response to Donovan Ready's post about wanting to see some activity here - I agree. It would be a pity for the forum to fade away. There is useful and interesting stuff here and it would be good for people to add to it. So finally I got around to registering.
I am originally from NZ, but have lived in the UK for a long time. My interest is primarily in electronics, having worked in datacoms, over PSTN, GSM, radio, satellites and fibre. I design and manufacture equipment for various industries. I also have an interest in alternative energy - Dougs off grid living posts were always informative. As an adjunct to other activities, I also do a little machining. Hopefully I will post on some of the things that were inspired by the Coulters Smithing website in the not too distant future.
Regards to all,
DavidR
