Terry McAdams

Terry McAdams is the founder and CEO of MacTech Solutions, an Apple Authorized Reseller and Service Provider in Wichita Falls, Texas. A tech enthusiast since the early 1980s, Terryโ€™s passion for computers sparked in high school, back when floppy disks were all the rage and Pac-Man was cutting-edge.

With a stellar 20-year career in the United States Air Force as an Avionics Technician and Instructor, Terryโ€™s tech-savvy skills only grew stronger. While stationed at Sheppard Air Force Base, he dove headfirst into the Wichita Falls community, where he connected with some truly awesome people, including Mike Hendren and Trey Sralla.

Terry made his radio debut with โ€œTerryโ€™s Tech Minute,โ€ a hit tech segment on News Talk 1290โ€™s Rise and Shine Show. Every morning, he rocked the airwaves with the latest tech news, and on Fridays, he joined Mike live in the studio for a totally tubular tech talk. When the Rise and Shine Show wrapped up, Mike knew they had to keep the good times rolling, inviting Terry to his new show, Wake Up Call.

In early 2024, Mike, Trey, and Terry joined forces to launch the โ€œGet It Right Texomaโ€ podcast, bringing their rad mix of expertise, insights, and community spirit to a fresh and growing audience.
