You found me. I played bass guitar for the Xterminators from 1978 to 1980 (when the band broke up). We were primarily a San Diego band. We put a couple of singles out on Radioactive Records: "Microwave Radiation" & "I Wanna Kill My T.V.". We performed at such luminary S.D. nightspots as The Skeleton Club, The Spirit & The Zebra Room. We were good freinds with The Zeros (who left San Diego in '78 or so & moved to S.F.).but whenever they came home to visit we would gig together & they would play on our equipment. My favorite gig was opening for Lydia Lunch & 13/13...Those guys had real N.Y. intensity and outstanding musicianship & Lydia didn't hesitate to pull her switchblade on anybody who disagreed.
