Growing up Albert enjoyed anything electrical and in 1949 earned his amateur radio license, VE1IV. He was a life member of the Pictou Amateur Radio Club. In his younger years Albert obtained his single engine pilot license and enjoyed flying float planes. His lab, Penny has been his constant companion for the last 13 years.
