WHO HAS BEEN A HAM FOR 23YEARS AND OPERATES W3L0E ... IS ASSISTANTMANAGER OF THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENTAT THE WESTINGHOUSE ELECTRONICS WITH AN IMPORTANT MESSAGEFOR ALL ELECTRONIC ENGINEERS! You may have heard Bob Cheekon the DX bands during the re-cent DX contest. Bob is a hamof 23 years standing, and isrecognized as an outstandingDX operator, both phone andCW. Like many hams, Bob findsthat his rig is relaxing andeducational ... and as stimu-lating as his work on advanceddevelopment projects at theWestinghouse Electronics Divi-sion. Can a job be as interesting asa hobby? Bob says it can! AtWestinghouse, he contends,the combination of profes-sional surroundings, creativefreedom and challenging proj-ects of tomorrow has put mein a real engineers heaven!In addition, the income andemploye benefits, fine suburbanliving conditions, and so forthhave helped both myself andmy family achieve many of our lifetime goals while we are stillyoung enough to enjoy them!For the expansion of work onthe interesting projects men-tioned by Bob Cheek, Westing-house needs still more experi-enced electronics you have an
