[Hallicrafters] Bulletin On Dr. Max De Henseler, HB9RS

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

I just received an e-mail from Herbert, HB9BOU in Switzerland. He told me 
that Max had fallen in his home in Switzerland. He laid on the floor 
unconscious for three days. His nephew came to visit, but Max did not answer 
the door. The nephew called the police. They broke down the door and found 
Max on the floor.

He was taken to Vevey, Switzerland to a hospital. He was in their intensive 
care unit.

I do know that Max had Pneumonia, but what else was wrong the message I got 
did not say.

Max has regained consciousness and is now out of the hospital. He is 
expected to make a complete recovery. At this point in time he is not able 
to make telephone calls or do e-mail.

If any of you would care to send Max a card, use his address on QRZ under 
his call of HB9RS.

As some of you know, Max and his late wife were close personal friends of 
Bill Halligan, Sr., the founder of Hallicrafters. Max is also the author of 
"The Hallicrafters Story".
