Lew Reinberg, W2BIE, (SK):

View comments about this article!

I regret to inform you of the passing of Lew Reinberg, W2BIE. Lew was licensed as a ham in 1953 and was very active on all bands (hf, vhf, and uhf.) He was a very active dxer and well known in the ham communities in New York and his beloved Baltimore.

Retired from the photographic and electronics industry, Lew's last job was with the Azden Company who at one time made rock-solid ham radios. Both Lew's wife w2ecr & son n2hok are active amateurs.

I don't think there was a room in Lew's house that wasn't within ear shot of a ham radio or scanner.

Services will be held today (Monday 3/17) at 10AM at:

At YOUNG ISRAEL of WEST HEMPSTEAD

630 Hempstead Ave.

West Hempstead, NY 11552

516 481 7429

Lew, was the best friend and Elmer, any ham could ever have. I met first met Lew in May 1987 when he encoraged me to get my novice license and was immensly supportive throughout the 21 years of personal friendship and amateur activities.
