Leroy's Story
Jacksonville University BA Psychology and minored in Biology Dec '66, USNR AT2 Dec '66-Dec '72, Jones College '85 Computer Science, National Radio Institute '92 Computer Electronics.
Married my lifetime Sweetheart Melody Kaye Poorbaugh on my birthday Oct 14, 1967. My daughter, Sherri Nicole(Nikki), born Oct 9,1969 and my son, Leroy III (Chip), born June 30, 1972.
Worked at Monarch TV June '58- Feb '74 as electronics tech, Signal Engineering / Trafcon Feb '74-Oct '88 as traffic signal electronics applications engineer, Load King as eletcrical applications engineer May-Sept '89, then City of Jacksonville FL Traffic Engineering Sept '89 until present as Traffic Signal electronics Tech-specializing in application design and electronics repair.
As a side line I own Traffic Signal R/C Devices and trafficsignalrcdevices.com. I invented an universal Trans...Expand for more
ceiver R/C Remote Adapter for police to remotely control a traffic signal intersection while in the street or in their patrol car with a hand held transceiver and for fire trucks to preempt normal traffic signal operation at the station to an all red mode to allow their trucks to be backed safely into the station on their return from a call-out. Over forty units are in use in Jacksonville by JSO officers and at present three fire stations.
My hobbies are amateur radio KD4SXU and my side line business. I have designed many special electronic devices for traffic signal operations in Jacksonville and the Jax City Council Chambers speaker's LED Display Lamp that alerts them when their allowed three minute speaking time has expired. I am constantly coming up with new electronic circuits to serve the city and my family. I enjoy my life with friends and family.
