[BC] a colleague in need of help

[Michael Patton]

Fellow engineers:

A good friend of mine is having trouble finding project work and is 
getting very discouraged and bitter about it, even depressed.  He lives 
in the Nashville area, where you'd think there would be work after all 
the floods, but no one has been in touch with him.  He's actually been 
doing some pro bono work for one of the Nashville AMs that was heavily 
damaged and has no budget for repairs, just to pass the time.

His rates are reasonable, and his expertise great, but, like many 
engineers, he's much better with the gear than with people, and he's not 
been very successful at lining up work in this leanest of years.

He can do AM, AM DA, studios, computers and networking, and transmitter 
repairs and retuning.  He has hi-power AM experience, and even some TV 
transmitter expertise.  Like many of us, he's not as young as he used to 
be, but he has no significant physical limitations.

If anyone has any project work in the mid-South that they need an old 
hand for, either to work alone or as part of a crew, contact me off-list 
and I will put you in touch with him.
