[CQ-Contest] LDEs and QST article by W6QYT

[Dan Eskenazi <desk@nwlink.com>]

Rex K7QQ recalls mystery LDEs on 75 meters many heard and played with back 
in the 70s. We were
referred to the article in QST about LDEs by Mike Villard W6QYT.
Heres a note from the W6YX gang on 3830 today, about their efforts in the 
NAQP SSB dedicated to SK Mike Villard
who passed away a few weeks ago.

"We've used the name Mike in our recent M/2 NAQP efforts both because it's my
name and it's easier to get across than Stan, Leland, or some of the other
alternatives we've tried.  The name Mike has more significance this time around
since it is also an appropriate acknowledgement of our former long-time club
advisor, Oswald Garrison "Mike" Villard, W6QYT, who passed away on January 7 at
the age of 87.  One of Mike's better-known ham radio accomplishments was the
introduction of SSB to the ham bands from W6YX while he was finishing his
doctorate in the late 1940s.  W6QYT, SK."
