Although I hate communism, the ham community lost a legend this week.

He's in the log on several bands and modes. Always struck me as someone who put science, technology and the love of radio far ahead of politics.
73 es RIP, OM.

Worked him on CW a long time ago and I new who I was talking to, having listened to him on DXers Unlimited for years. politics aside, he will be missed for his enthusiasm for promoting Amateur Radio and SWLing. Rest in Peace Arnie.
