[SFDXA] W1BIH - SK

[Bill]

It is with great sadness that I pass along the news that John Thompson,
W1BIH (aka PJ9JT) became a Silent Key on March 8. John was an ardent
contester and DXer (390 confirmed), a member of the CQ Contest Hall of Fame
(number 14) and an ardent CW operator.

John was a member of YCCC, FOC, Connecticut Wireless Association and QCWA.

Funeral arrangements are pending at this time.

While John was not a member of CWops, I'm sure he would have been if he
could still send CW. He had a partial stroke in 2008 that left his right
side pretty much useless.

Pete, W1RM
