I just found out that an older friend passed on. I had not heard from him in some time and had been off the air during the period that he passed.
That brought to my attention that this forum does not have an SK area like some do.
I don't know if there is any interest in starting one.
I know I am getting tired of losing ham friends myself.
And if you know of a ham that passes on please send a copy of the printed obituary to the FCC so that the license does not go on as active.
My older friend's club did not let anyone know and he passed 6 months ago.
I sent a link to the obituary to the FCC, maybe they will take that and maybe they won't.
His callsign was W1HVC and he was licensed in 1934. Many knew him.
