[SECC] [SEDXC] K4TWJ Silent Key Info from CQ Magazine

[Dave]

I first met Dave at United Electronics in Birmingham Al in 1971. He was an
instructor there and I was a student. He helped me fine tune my homebrew 40m
novice transmitter. I believe he was at the time writing a column for 73
magazine on slow scan TV.

Saw this on QRZ.com today:

CQ Columnist Dave Ingram, K4TWJ, SK

It is with great sadness that we report that our friend and longtime 
colleague, Dave Ingram, K4TWJ, became a Silent Key this morning (Jan. 
20), as a result of complications from a massive heart attack he 
suffered on New Year's Eve.

Dave has been writing for CQ at least since 1981 and has been a CQ 
columnist since 1982, starting with an amateur television column called 
World of Video. That column eventually broadened its outlook and became 
World of Ideas, Dave's signature monthly column in CQ.

Regular topics included code keys, stealth antennas, building "new 
vintage" tube gear and mobiling. In addition, for the past decade, Dave 
has been CQ's QRP (low power) Editor and "How it Works" columnist. His 
enthusiasm for whatever caught his interest was contagious and spread 
widely through his informal yet educational writing style.

Funeral arrangements are not complete as of this writing. We will post 
additional information on the CQ website news page when it becomes 
available.

Condolence cards may be sent to Dave's wife, Sandy, WB4OEE, at their 
Callbook address.

73,

Rich W2VU
