It's always sad when we learn of the passing of a contester. One of the bad aspects of our hobby is we tend to sit all the time and our diet (at least during contesting at least) isn't always the bes

I would like to add one more thought. While the thought of going through the medical checkups might be a tad scary, just think how scary it is to have pains in your chest and being in an ambulance in

Pete:   Yes ...I can't repeat this enough.  Rich was the second of my close ham radio friends to go in the last few months ..seemingly in great shape (the other being Bruce W8MHW).  Nobody else here

My first thought of a health issue from contesting, wasn't so much a heart attack, well sorts but the possibility of getting a DVT http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/deep-vein-thrombosis/b

So sad to lose a great operator like Rich. But for the Grace of God I might have joined him -- a few months ago, my primary care doc heard a murmur on my heart, and sent me for a check up. Long story

I think ham radio as a whole has health issues - as does America. However, if there is an exception, I'd say that contesters are often the exception. Perhaps its the Type "A" personality found in a l

Wow! That's great Rich. I am guessing you are a comparative "youngster" in the contest group. Even fast walking is probably very helpful if you can't run. Chuck W5PR _________________________________

and far too many of us can be seen being wheeled around the aisles of hamfests on "mobility scooters." It truly breaks my heart so see so many friends heading for an earlier than necessary grave. Th

BMI is over rated. At the age of 60 I'm 6 foot tall and 210 pounds which works out to a BMI of 28.4. I work in a warehouse and spend the whole day on my feet hauling around 80# bags of salt and 5 gal

I tend to agree with Steve. Although it isn't 100% I do believe that BMI is over-rated. After my last physical (I'm 57), my doctor is telling me that better indicators are resting heart rate and SPO2
