David's Story

Since Junior year in High School I have been working in electronic in one form or another. I've worked in the Telecom and Broadcast sectors as well as manufacturing electronics. In the 1980's and 1990's I Designed and built high power (up to 110,000 watt) AM and FM Broadcast system all around the Northeast US as well as holding the Chief Engineer post at Mercury Radio in Buffalo 97 Rock, Oldies 104, and 103.3 the Edge. During that time I engineered the first FM stereo broadcast of the Buffalo Bills and built the Buffalo Bills Radio network head end feeding over 25 affiliate stations in the Northeast. Since 2001 my focus has been designing micro electronics that live in cell sites in the US and Canada . Systems that allow you to make cell calls when the weather is very cold or very hot. I've worked Behind-the-scenes engineering live sporting events and concerts Yes, I've been back stage at a Rolling Stones Concert, and many others. (It's not what you might think... Lots of exercise equipment and health food) For the most part I'm autodidactic. I've been named as Inventor on US Patents, I live in a modest...Expand for more
little house and drive an old Ford Pickup. My interests include Radio Broadcasting and the preservation of vintage Broadcast Transmitters, I'm a Photographer , I'm a Ham Radio operator (Extra Class). I'm married to Sandy Kormanski Halik. ( also a Ham Radio operator and Photographer of note ) I have 4 daughters and 5 grand kids I'm sometimes called Vid or Uncle Vid ( short for daVID, No da ) Music is the glue that hold our lives together and Green Day is our family band (3 generations). and of late I'm digging the retro sound of Greta Van Fleet. My philosophy on life, "Put away your cell phone and live in the moment, make your way to the front of the crowd and sweat with the band. Sing the songs you know and don't stop learning the new ones. Sing loud. Dance. Talk to strangers. ask them about there passions and dreams..and tell them your own. "Invent and Be Big, Be a Builder." People I'm :"Still keepin the Electrons flowing".. (yes those very small particles that move in conductors) . I'm also on old-friends.co I wonder if anybody ever reads this? If so drop me line.,and tell me about your passion.
