Destiny or
coincidence?
Steve was born on 10/03/1957
and claims he recalls watching the TV in the nursery the following
day when the news of Sputnik (the first man made satellite) was on
every TV channel all day long.
Good thing it
wasn't cartoons.
Other notable
facts about Steve's Birth Date......

possible dates for the birth date of Osama Bin Laden.

Steve got his degree in
History and Political Science at CSU Chico in 1982. Upon graduation.
and while considering further education, Steve found that his cousin
was in the Home Satellite Business in Rosemead, CA.
Shortly after joining
Home Satellite TV, Steve's cousin chased bigger dreams in
distribution and wholesale of Satellite TV products and Steve and
another installer (Jeff Dubel) partnered up to form "Ground Control Satellite
Earth Stations" in February 1983.
It was Jeff that came
up with the name "Ground Control".
Our first sale was made
using a trailer with a 12' Paraclipse dish, Luxor
receiver, MTI Positioner and a 19" Toshiba monitor powered by
a Honda generator out on Topanga Canyon Road. That first customer is
still with us (although he now has 4DTV).
Steve
became sole proprietor
in 1986. In 1990,
we moved from Huntington Beach to Westminster. |
