[RTTY] Hank Scharfe, W6SKC SK

[k0bx@qsl.net]

The following is a message I received:

"A RTTY pioneer, inventor and long time friend, W6SKC died of a heart
attack
on 23 April in Nogales, Arizona.  Hank, you recall was the owner of
Dovetron.

Thought maybe you might want to mention this in the DX Hog, perhaps
there
are a few DX-ers that knew of him or at least his RTTY terminal units.

Mel, k0pfx"

I have meet Hank several times in the 70/80's at Dayton.  He is the one
that Made the Dovetron Terminal units and always had a ad on the back of
the RTTY Journal.  His TU was way ahead of it times and still as good as
any.
