GARY PEARCE
Gary is pround to call himself a geek! Always fixing something ( or taking it apart) or designing some computer code or lighting and sound system.
​
An unlikely career move after building and driving Steam Engines at a tourist attraction in Cornwall where he lived took Gary into the world of designing and building early digital photographic industrial printers and was a key member of the team designing and building the first ‘digital photo kiosk’ which are now a common way for people to print their photos. Gary likes to point out that this is his 'claim to fame!
​
During any ‘spare’ time he frequently worked as a DJ for nightclubs in Cornwall and Devon, then went on to work as a freelance sound and lighting engineer for the BBC, ITV, local radio stations and production companies in the area.
Currently his career as a senior meteorological engineer for the UK Met Office takes him to various interesting places abroad on a regular basis but Gary still finds time for his passion for music, broadcast technology and most importantly good coffee.
​
The undying passion for anything technical in the world of Broadcast and IT was a perfect combination to realise a life long dream and own a radio station, so Gary and Chris Hughes, with his immense experience in the Local Radio Broadcast World, joined forces and Built White Horse Radio from the ground up.
Its a good job Gary also likes his coffee as it keeps him awake whilst designing the Computer systems and programming the code that keeps White Horse Radio 'on-air!'
