Today, April 30, 2021, I obtained a Certificate of Successful Completion of Examination (CSCE) for the Element 2 (Technician) Ham Radio operator test. As soon as the FCC issues my call sign, I'll be able to transmit (not broadcast) as a Technician Class Ham Radio operator!!
My next goal is General and then Amateur Extra. I decided to study and take each test individually.
Happened to bump into this mechanic on the streets of Varanasi. He has been sitting there for several decades and repairs anything under the sun !!

Author / Creator: Sievers, Wolfgang, 1913-2007 photographer.
Date: 1974.
The National Library of Australia holds a similar, colour photo of this scene.
Varian Techtron was the result of a merger between the Australian company Techtron and the American firm Varian Associates in 1967. The Springvale Road site (then in Springvale North, but now in Mulgrave) was established by Techtron and is still in use, but now as Agilent Technologies (which acquired Varian in 2009). Techtron Appliances was established in 1938 and it and its successor companies have produced a variety of electronic and analytic equipment for industry and scientific research, notably including Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometers (AAS) to CSIRO specifications.

A technician monitors the progress as NASA’s crawler-transporter 2, also called CT-2, continues to slowly move along the crawlerway on a test run to Launch Pad 39B at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Fondly referred to as the "workhorses" of the space program, both crawlers, CT-1 and CT-2, have served the agency's space programs for 50 years. The Ground Systems Development and Operations Program at Kennedy has made steady progress on upgrades and modifications to CT-2 to be ready to support NASA's Space Launch System and Orion spacecraft, and CT-1 to support a variety of other launch vehicles.

This week in 1966, NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center technicians acceptance-fired the S-IC-3, or first stage of the Saturn rocket, for 121.7 seconds. This was the last planned firing of the S-IC at Marshall. The S-IC was powered by five F-1 engines, each producing 1.5 million pounds of thrust. Here, an F-1 engine is test fired at Marshall’s S-IC Static Test Stand. From October 2018 through December 2022, NASA will mark the 50th anniversary of the Apollo Program that landed a dozen astronauts on the Moon between July 1969 and December 1972, and the first U.S. crewed mission -- Apollo 8 -- that circumnavigated the Moon in December 1968. Today, Marshall is developing NASA's Space Launch System, the most powerful rocket ever built, capable of sending astronauts to the Moon, Mars and deeper into space than ever before. The NASA History Program is responsible for generating, disseminating, and preserving NASA’s remarkable history and providing a comprehensive understanding of the institutional, cultural, social, political, economic, technological and scientific aspects of NASA’s activities in aeronautics and space.

The chip was installed on Jan. 23, 2018. This joins another microchip that was previously installed that included 800,000 names for a grand total of 2.4 million names going to Mars as early as May 5, 2018.
Here is Joe the technician responsible for rebuilding 428 gearbox for us and he had a remarkable story to tell us about our very own gearbox. Turns out he was no stranger to the gearbox, not only the type but our actual gearbox. While cleaning the casing he noticed a serial number he himself stamped on the gearbox back in 1991!... Joe many years ago had worked for a transmission company who had the contract to refurbish gearboxes for Eastern Scottish. 31 years after overhauling the very same gearbox here he is doing it again. I hope it lasts another 30 years. A massive thank you to the whole team at Mackies Automotive Transmissions in Glasgow for all their help in getting our little bus back to full health. We hope to see Joe at the Museum for a ride on 428 one day soon.

Inside the Multi-Operations Support Building near the Multi-Payload Processing Facility (MPPF) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, a technician prepares to put on a Self-Contained Atmospheric Protective Ensemble (SCAPE) suit inside a changing room on Aug. 16, 2019. SCAPE technicians are practicing putting on their suits for a test simulation of loading propellants into a replicated test tank for Orion. Exploration Ground Systems is preparing for Artemis 1 with a series of hazardous hyper test events at the MPPF. After donning their suits, the technicians will complete a tanking to test the system before Orion arrives for processing. During preparations for launch, these teams will be responsible for loading the Orion vehicle with propellants prior to transportation to the Vehicle Assembly Building, where it will be secured atop the Space Launch System rocket. SCAPE suits are used in operations involving toxic propellants and are supplied with air either through a hardline or through a self-contained environmental control unit.

Technicians prepare the Project Morpheus prototype lander for its fifth free flight test at the north end of the Shuttle Landing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The 74-second test began around 1 p.m. EST with the Morpheus lander launching from the ground over a flame trench and ascending 467 feet, more than 160 feet higher than its last test. Morpheus flew forward, covering 637 feet in 30 second before descending and landing on target on a dedicated pad inside the autonomous landing and hazard avoidance technology, or ALHAT, hazard field. Project Morpheus tests NASA’s ALHAT and an engine that runs on liquid oxygen and methane, or green propellants, into a fully-operational lander that could deliver cargo to other planetary surfaces. The landing facility provides the lander with the kind of field necessary for realistic testing, complete with rocks, craters and hazards to avoid. Morpheus’ ALHAT payload will allow it to navigate to clear landing sites amidst rocks, craters and other hazards during its descent.

Weapon Engineering Technician Daniel ‘Knocker’ White, from Hemsworth, has been in the Royal Navy for 3 years. He is currently onboard HMS Westminster, a Portsmouth based Type 23 frigate, in the Indian Ocean as part of the Royal Navy’s long standing commitment in the area.
Daniel formerly of Hemsworth Arts and Community College is part of the Weapon Engineering Department on board HMS Westminster.
Assisting with the maintenance on the ship’s radar and sensor systems, Daniel is particularly busy fixing challenging radar defects, ensuring that Westminster can undertake her patrols and boarding operations.
Daniel said: “My current job on board is to assist with maintaining the ship’s complex radar systems, it is I must say one that I love as it is challenging and rewarding at the same time.
He added: “There’s never a boring day I can assure you of that, there’s all ways something to do either fixing defects or tweaking of the equipment to get the optimal performance from it”.
As well as being an integral part of the Weapon Engineering Department, Daniel is a keen member of the Ship’s Company who is at the heart of morale motivating events on board, such as running wholeship quiz nights.
When not directly involved in morale building tasks, he is always on hand to assist with the rigging of the ship’s PA system for barbecues and other ship borne activities, ensuring that he keeps a smile on the faces of the Ship’s Company during Westminster’s time away from home port.
Daniel spends most of his spare time fixing or making things for other members of the Ship’s Company. He recently made a rather impressive parrot and hat for ‘Pickle Night’ a tradition of the Warrant and Senior Rates Messes to celebrate Nelson’s victory at Trafalgar.
Daniel said: “the challenges of this deployment have given me the opportunity to show what I can really do”.
He also said: “Being away from home is hard, especially at times like Christmas and the New Year, but it’s the thought that we are now over half way through that keeps me going, so I’ll soon be at home with my family and friends”.
As with all deployments of this length there are always changes to the operational programme due emerging commitments that require Royal Navy intervention.
Daniel said: “I’m sure there are a few surprises around the corner to still come. So yes there are highs and lows in this job as things change, but it is these changes and the engineering challenges that make it enjoyable regardless”.
Daniel is due back to the UK in February 2014.
