[NLRS] Wally -- W0PHD -- SK

[aduhawk at comcast.net]

I was able to work Wally in my NC9F days from EN51.  We had several summer evening QSOs on SSB on 2 and 432.  I am sorry to learn of his passing.

73,

I SO ENJOYED our 10GHz roving for the 10GHz & Above contests with Wally. We had lots of fun working Dennis NT0V (SK) and Barry as well as others when we could.
