How to get Help for your Computer

1 Call into the show or send us an email. We do not embassass anyone because listeners only hear your first name, and besides, if you have a question you don't know the answer to, I guarantee you that there are others that don't know either.

2 Attend a local club meeting. There are numerous clubs in the county and surrounding and they will help you either by hearing a good speaker or participating in one of there groups.

3 Be sure to listen to us on WCHE 1520 AM or at 5DRadio.com every Saturday morning at 8, and don't forget our Podcasts if you miss a show.

Computer Corner
with Gene Mitchell
, Joe Myshko
Saturdays 8 to 930 AM on www.5DRadio.com &

from 8-9am on WCHE 1520 West Chester

Gene"Computer Corner" will take calls from listeners who experience computer problems, both hardware and software as well as questions about topics being discussed.  The show starts with up to date computer news and information and a discussion topic. Many shows will have guests that are movers and shakers in the industry. Speacial tips and web site recommendations are offered.

Gene Mitchell is the perfect guy for the job, because he has over 24 years experience building and fixing computers, and he has taught Night School for over 18 years. He worked at WCOJ for over 5 1/2 years as Sunday morning engineer and producer for the Sunday morning religious broadcasts as well as remote broadcast engineer and then Chief Engineer. He also produced and hosted the Saturday Morning Computer Corner Show on WCOJ for 4 full years untill the station was sold September 30th, 2008. The Fifth Dimension Radio Network was created to continue the Computer Corner.WCHE 1520 now carries the Computer Corner Radio Show.

Gene has been well known throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania for over 35 years because of Ham Radio, Rotary Club, and even the popular Kimberton Roller Rink he used to own and operate, that drew hundreds from distant places. Gene is President of PARA, the Philadelphia Area Repeater Association, a 501C3 non-profit. He has been twice, a past President of Exton-Frazer Rotary Club and also Chairman of the Rotary District 7450 Technical Committee where he helps all 54 clubs in the District with Technology. He has made friends with most of his former roller skaters and is in contact with them, even after 21 years since the rink closed. Many of these people are now listeners of the Computer Corner Radio Show. Many listeners stop by his shop to say hello, which Gene welcomes.   

Everyone has a computer today and everyone is experiencing problems. Listeners have called from as far away as Lancaster County, Philadelphia, Wilmington,De, South Carolina, and Florida

Joe Myshko, a security consultant, who came on the show monthly, has joined the new Fifth Dimension Radio Network full time.

Listeners can email the show anytime to gene@5DRadio.com. A computer is in the studio during the show. Callers can call in during the show to 610-590-0451 for all kinds of advice.

Fifth Dimension Radio Network and the affilliates need advertisers / sponsors.
