Kevin K. Custer W3KKC

Hi there!

I am a son of the late Ken and Betty Custer of Somerset PA. My father, W3WGX (SK). I got my first ham license in 1984 (age 19). My real interest in radio is with repeaters - I have several throughout Pennsylvania.

I own Masters Communications where I offer commercial and amateur electronic items. http://www.masterscommunications.com

I also have a website to help others with building repeaters and answering technical questions. http://www.repeater-builder.com

With help from several others, I'm involved in the WAN Repeater System - an Amateur Internet connected (AllStar Link) repeater link system. http://www.w3wan.com

I became involved with AllStar Link in 2010, rolling out several nodes in the WAN Repeater System. I've been heavily involved with financial support of ASL over the years. I'm currently an Executive Board member, and have been since the untimely passing of Jim Dixon WB6NIL the - founder of AllStar Link.
