Done.

I have dozens of Q's in the log with Vic, especially from SS CW.

Hello,

Some of you may recognize the call sign N4XR or even more HH2VP.  Vic has 
been a prominent person in early contesting and DXing.

I recently received the email below from Vic’s daughter Barb.

It’s tough to have been so active and communitcated over many years with 
friends around the world and suddenly be shut off.

Take a look at your logs. If you have every had a QSO with N4XR or HH2VP 
maybe you could confirm again that QSO and have Vic a reason to “check the 
mail “ again.

Sooner or later we will all get old and maybe also looking for that old 
spark of a distant QSO.


The nurse at Victor's home has informed me that he hangs out when the mail 
comes in every day to see if he gets any.  He doesn't.

If you all could occasionally drop him a postcard or something, it would be 
great.  Keep in mind he probably doesn't know who you are, sad to say, he 
just likes to get mail with his name on it.  (He used to read every morsel 
of junk mail he received, although he didn't know what it was.  But since we 
moved, that source has dried up.)

Thanks for the help!

Love,
