Comments:
We, the "K8AZ Crew", dedicate this contest effort to long-time crew
member, Reno Tonsi, WT8C, who became a silent key 2/27/2020 at the age of 83.
Reno joined the K8AZ Crew in 1989, and participated in more than 110 K8AZ
multi-operator contest efforts since then. Further, over the years, he answered
the call for the many K8AZ antenna work parties many hundreds of times, showing
up to help out countless weekends over the years. (One summer, he even got the
nickname "Reno the Riviter" from when we built multiple HF yagis).
Plus, since about 1990, every contest Sunday, he cooked individual omelets for
each K8AZ operator, making Sunday morning of every contest the biggest turnout
day of each contest weekend. I estimate Reno cooked over 700 contest omelets
over the years. A great tradition we're now doing our best to honor in his
memory.
73, Reno. RIP, OM. Know that you are missed, and all of us are grateful that
we were granted the great privilege of a contest weekend immediately following
your passing to remember and honor you. The Glenlivet toast to you after the
contest was something special.
With a big mix of sadness (and joy) and respect.
K8AZ
