On the wall are examples of various awards, certificates, and a reception report card (QSL card) from a foreign amateur station. Amateur radio (also called ham radio) is the use of designated radio frequency spectra for purposes of private recreation, non-commercial exchange of messages, wireless experimentation, self-training, and emergency communication. The term "amateur" is used to specify persons interested in radio technique solely with a personal aim and without direct monetary or other similar reward, and to differentiate it from commercial broadcasting, public safety (such as police and fire), or professional two-way radio services (such as maritime, aviation, taxis, etc.).

Gem City Records in Oregon District closing DAYTON — Gem City Records, 318 E. Fifth St., will close Jan. 29. The Oregon District landmark will have everything on sale from 30 percent to 50 percent off until the date of closure, sales clerk Megan Springhart said Tuesday evening, Dec. 15. The store has six employees, Springhart said, and the building is being sold. The business is owned by Value Music Concepts Inc. of Marietta, Ga. News of the closing was greeted with sadness by bargain hunters combing the aisles until closing time around 8 p.m. Back home in Centerville during a break at the University of Cincinnati, Matt Walter, 21, said he was disappointed. “It’s a very good music store,” he said while hunting soul, rock and folk selections in the vinyl record department. “I wasn’t expecting this at all.” Phil Clark, 21, also of Centerville and a University of Dayton student, said the closure “is kind of sad. He said he drove right to the store after being alerted by a text message from a friend.
Bud Industries (@Budbox) sur Twitter How to Remove Trovi / Conduit / Search Protect Browser Hijack Malware If your computer has been hijacked with an obnoxious malware that won’t let you change your home page, there’s a strong chance you’ve been infected with the Trovi Search Protect malware, which used to be known as Conduit. Here’s how to remove it. How do you know this is malware? Instead of installing like it should, as a Google Chrome Extension, you’ll probably see that your extensions list doesn’t mention Trovi or Conduit at all. How Did You Get Infected? Usually at some point you made the huge mistake of trusting a site like Download.com, which bundled it into an installer for a completely different application. They get around the legality issue with their long terms of service that nobody reads and by making sure there’s actually a way to uninstall the thing. Removing the Trovi Search Protect Malware This is really sad to say, but it’s actually important to use the Search Protect panel to turn off the bad settings first before uninstalling it.

University of Dayton Research Institute gets $49.5M contract DAYTON — The University of Dayton Research Institute has landed its biggest contract in its 53-year history, securing $49.5 million from the U.S. Air Force for work on advanced jet fuels and combustion technology. The six-year cooperative grant from the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Propulsion Directorate was effective Friday, Dec. 11. The award helps cement UDRI’s reputation as one of the top centers in the world for jet fuel research, said Dilip Ballel, who heads UDRI’s energy and environmental engineering division. A UDRI spokeswoman said the research could help wean the United States from its dependence on foreign-based oil. “This is a program of national importance to us because of the energy security of the nation,” Ballel said. UDRI has hired about 20 people in the last two years “to demonstrate we have the manpower to do the work,” Ballel said. An Air Force spokesman couldn’t be reached for comment on Monday, Dec. 14, regarding how many companies submitted bids for the contract.
Welcome to Ford Owner | Official Ford Owner Site UD buys NCR headquarters, Old River Park DAYTON – The University of Dayton has purchased NCR Corp.’s former world headquarters property for $18 million. Daniel J. Curran, university president, announced the purchase today, Monday, Dec. 21. UD will move its University of Dayton Research Institute to the 455,127-square-foot, five-story building on the Great Miami River. “The present impact is tremendous; the future impact may be even greater,” Curran said. In a campus press conference to announce the acquisition Monday morning, Eric Fingerhut, chancellor of the Ohio Board of Regents, said the move would bolster a research institute increasingly valued nationally and internationally. “This is not a well-kept secret,” Fingerhut said. The acquisition will solidify the Dayton region’s place as a hub for aerospace research in the state and beyond,” said Lisa Patt-McDaniel, Ohio Department of Development director. In June, NCR announced it was moving its headquarters and most of 1,300 Dayton jobs to the Atlanta area by the end of 2010.
British Royal Family History NCR building will become UD research center Six months ago, some in Dayton wondered how the loss of NCR Corp.’s headquarters would alter the community’s identity. After the University of Dayton announced Monday, Dec. 21, that it has purchased the former NCR headquarters building, many are hailing the $18 million acquisition that will let UD give the building a scientific and technological focus that it hasn’t seen in perhaps decades. Michael McCabe, UD’s vice president for research and executive director of the University of Dayton’s Research Institute, said UDRI needs space and resources that the 455,000-square-foot building will offer. UDRI went from $38 million to more than $96 million in research last year alone, McCabe said. Until now, the building has housed mostly administrative functions tied to NCR. In fact, McCabe said, the university will have to renovate. “That building is office space,” he said. “We’re going to put a tremendous amount of money into turning this facility into a research facility,” Leland said.
