Ann advised me that John passed away this morning in San Antonio. He fought
a long battle against many health problems during the last several years.
John was one of my roving buddies here in TX. Since moving to Texas, he had
almost completed his dream station (6-m through 10 GHz) at a great location
(20 dB hilltop) and participated in both AMSAT and RMG club activities.
Previously, while in Minnesota, he was a very active NLRS member on the
VHF/UHF/SHF bands with fixed, rover and portable stations.
As a retired pharmacist and U of MN assistant professor, John will be
remembered for his programming contributions with his 10 GHz contest
logging/scoring program and his on-line contest activity spreadsheets. He
also had many interests in astronomy and astrophysics.
RIP John!
73, Jim
