[SBE] HD plant construction engineer needed

[Tony Mancari]

This is an interesting discussion and I am going to chime in with some
past experience... 

Many years ago when I first got into the technical end of radio and TV I
made a buck 60 an hour (1970)...once I got my First Phone and worked at
a directional AM I was bumped to 10 bucks (1980)...along came the
opportunity to join SBE (1990) and I was at 75 dollars minimum call in
or a rate of 50 dollars an hour, minimum 150 dollars bill if travel was
more than 10 miles.

Honestly, the biggest difference was time marching on, attending a lot
of tech continuation education, meeting the people at all the stations
in the area I was working in, offering assistance in anyway
possible...sometimes even free ...that's right, just offering to come in
and look at the issue...thus gaining a lot of experience in both radio,
TV, in design and installation of both, and finally holding both the FCC
First Phone and SBE certification...

SBE Certification- just do it!

 Not faulting you, but isn't that below the federal poverty rate ?

How many surrealists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

One to hold the giraffe and one to fill the bathtub with brightly
