Where is ex TU2EF, G3DHF, VE2AKQ, 9Q5RN, VS9AR
« on: November 08, 2005, 07:32:03 AM »

Hi I am looking for any info about
Mr. Hugh Rylands.
He was active in the late 70`s as TU2EF.
Before his calls were 9Q5RN, VE2AKQ, G3DHF, ZB1DHF, VS9AR and may be more.
Many thanks!

Hugh, TU2EF, EL2EF, was local data rep (a sort of librarian) for McDonnell Douglas in Abidjan, Ivory Coast in the mid-1970s. He was born in England and lived in the Pacific Northwest. He spent most of his on-air time in experimental satellite work. He was not a young man then, and was a survivor of an air crash that left him with serious burns. While his name doesn't appear in the Social Security Death Index if he were alive today he'd be well over 100 years old.
