Episode notes

I've been fortunate enough to work in cellular and wireless my entire career. When I went to engineering school, my dad was electrical engineer but he worked with the utility company. He wanted to me to graduate in traditional electrical engineer like energy generation, distribution, but I like electronics communication. So I ended up doing both. And I always like communication was fascinated by wireless communication. That's how it started.
