Weather Station Update
I just finished adding comprehensive Plug & Play configuration to the 1-Wire Weather Service for Java. For a typical
application, there are only three or four parameters that must be set, and then only if you wish to post your data to APRS/CWOP
or Weather Underground. You need to enter your station ID and password for either service (assigned to you by the service),
and APRS/CWOP also requires your latitude and longitude in LORAN format. That's it.
There are still dozens of available tweaks and options for customizing your weather station, but the defaults are appropriate
for the vast majority of applications.

Welcome!
This site is dedicated to my interest in engineering. I use it as a place to just put stuff "out there" for anyone who
might be interested, as well as a job search tool. This page contains my engineering web log (to your left). Anything that
seems timeless enough, or too involved for a log entry may get it's own page as a full-blown article. And, of course, my resume
is here for anyone who might be considering hiring me to do something. Email me.
About Me
I have worked as a broadcast engineer, electronics designer (analog and digital) and software developer. I especially
enjoy audio engineering, although I've been writing software for the last several years, since that's where the opportunities
are in the Pacific Northwest (this is Microsoft country after all). I'm currently working as a Senior Staff Engineer -- Resume at another large independent software vendor in Washington State.
I majored in mathematics and physics in college. Other interests include music appreciation (baroque, classical and early
romantic, ragtime, and 60's and 70's rock & roll), high fidelity audio electronics, meteorology and of course, computing
hardware and software. I tend to think a lot like this guy.
