Friend : Tim Shingara (WB3EYB)

My good buddy! We met around 1975 on
the
CB radio and both got our ham license
in
1976. (Tim had been previously
licensed
as WN3/WA3PNF, but had let it lapse.)
I
went over to his house to lend him my
Heathkit HG10B VFO so he could
troubleshoot one that he had. We
quickly
became good friends and spent a lot of
time together doing ham radio and
other
"fun stuff". Tim was 10 years older
than
me and I learned by watching him. I
learned a lot about radio, building
stuff
and helping others. Tim gave me my
first
Vibroplex bug and some of my best
memories
are operating high speed CW with him
all
night long at Field Day. We became
separated by distance, but always
close
with phone and Skype calls to share
the
latest jokes and ham stories. I paid
back some of what he gave me by
helping
him when he was getting into SDR. Our
ritual of attending the Dayton hamfest
with Timmy was a highlight every year.
We
honored Tim by going to Dayton this
year,
not long after his passing, and missed
him
greatly. Tim is also being honored by
his
sons who have taken his call signs:
J.T.
is now WB3EYB and Tom is newly
licensed
and is WA3PNF. Keep Tim's memory
alive -
help another ham. 73, Greg, K3EA
