| KB8RQ SK odszedł jeden z najbardziej znanych EME-rowców |
| Ta smutna wiadomość dotarła do nas poprzez MoonNet. Dla wielu z nas był jednym z Big Guns, których można było zrobić jako pierwsze stacje via EME. Tnx. RIP Gary! Dear friends: It is with heavy heart I share that Gary Crabtree, KB8RQ (age 77) of Brookville, OH is a Silent Key (9 May). A close friend and passionate moon-bounce enthusiast extraordinaire, Gary confirmed 247 DXCC 2m countries (top world score). Gary also had a good (4 x 9) 6m presence. He was a kind, graceful, helpful friend to all: especially others who shared EME interest. Gary and I shared a common birthday (25 Nov).Those who attended Dayton Hamvention remember the special EME gatherings Gary and Barbara hosted at their home selflessly sharing fantastic food and fellowship.We’re going to miss him.When you next operate EME and orient your antennas toward the moon, please remember our friend Gary.73,God Bless Dave KJ9I |
