Wintek, acronym for Winther Teknik (Danish) or Winther Technologies.
It's about all aspects of
technology and science. MyWintek is the Wintek passion stuff.
With an early interest for electronically and mechanical engineering,
model airplane, cars and stars in the sky, it turned out to be the
professional engineering aspects of mobile communication over the last
40 years. Of those, almost 30 years has been within mobile satellite
communication.
The interest in all aspects of life, existence and science have led to many
studies: A special interest in a deeper knowledge of the old universe,
was further stimulated by the impressive pictures from the Hubble Space
Telescope.
The interest for cars remained and in 1995. I made an old
dream come true, and bought a Morgan, an old British open sports car from 1965. It
fulfilled the aspect of exploring the nature from a car with English classic style
and being able to restore and learn from bottom up the car technology.
The idea, was to upgrade it with modern engine computer control,
fuel injection and
turbo charging to learn from theory to practice via practical implementation.
The best way to check the level of your achieved skills, is to explain the
stuff for others, in a structured way.

Mythological
Background:
Long ago in Ethiopia Cassiopeia have been the wife of
Cepheus and the mother of
Andromeda. Because she thought
herself more beautiful than the daughters of Nereus, a god of the sea,
she challenged the anger of the god Poseidon. To punish her, her
daughter was chained to a rock of the coast as a sacrifice for a sea
monster. Andromeda was saved from death by
Perseus. (Publius Ovidius Naso:
Metamophoses, IV)
To learn humility Cassiopeia was banned to the sky hanging half of the
time head downward.
