From the Huntington, WV Herald-Dispatch:
Lifelong love of technology has local man doing unique projects
Robert Fischer sees the world differently than most.
When his wife injured her foot a few months ago, she had to be on crutches. When most people see aluminum crutches, they think of the time they too were on crutches and their armpits hurt.
Fischer saw a dipole antenna.
"I have built probably 100 or more antennas of all designs," Fischer said. "After you do that you start looking at all conductors, metal objects, as antennas. You think what would happen if you tried loading up, put a signal into the antenna and radiate it into space. It's something I do subconsciously, something I can't help.
A kindred spirit...
