Hi I'm Ken Newberry,
I work as an analytical chemist in the San Francisco Bay Area. My wife and I live on an island named Alameda which by the way is home to the famous Aircraft Carrier USS Hornet . I'm part Japanese and can speak and understand Japanese just enough to get by. For those of you living in Japan and who also love classical music may have heard of my relative Fujiko Hemming? I've enyoyed travelling to Japan and Hawaii visiting family and friends. My travel photos are here on Flickr.
If your into skateboarding, you might of heard my cousin Daniel Shimizu? He has become quite popular in the professional skateboarding scene.
As an aviation enthusiast, my place, on the third story I call "tower" here in Alameda puts me in a great spot. I overlook the San Francisco Bay directly towards San Francisco International with Oakland International departures to my left of view. It's always exciting watching planes depart to their destinations and arriving back home. It makes me want to travel and see the world a little more.
I've been a ham operator since, 1984 holding a Technician Plus Certificate. I've done some work on VHF hitting reapeaters on Catalina Island with less than a watt of power from the LA Basin. It was exciting times back then! I'm a tech geek.
PINEGAP, my screen name on Flickr, and my personalized license plate is also known as the Joint Defence Space Research Facility "PINEGAP". I also have an interest in Space and Technology. Coast to Coast AM is a show I listen to almost nightly.
I've been a film extra here in San Francisco with Laura Folger, Nancy Hayes, and Beau Bonneau casting agencies since the early 90's. Some films I've worked on were; "Angels in the Outfield", Beverly Hills Cop III", "Getting Even with Dad", "Murder in the First", "The Net", "The Shephard" (AT&T commercial), and "Sweet November" to name a few.
I volunteer the streaming audio feed for (KOAK) Oakland International Airport, CA USA hosted by a great site called LiveATC
