In his younger days, K6VVA did a lot of guest operating at some really good stations. By the end of the contest, whatever food was in the kitchen, refrigerator, etc, was gone, gobbled up by “the locust” (or rather a swarm of them).

Amazingly, Eric’s metabolism was (and still seems to be) such that as much as he ate, he gained no weight.

Great guy, great friend!

Jack, W6FB
