[TenTec] W8KC Virtual Ten*Tec Museum

[73 at 73.am]

It is always important to be courteous and proceed with respect in things of this nature.  I think you hit it right on the head about pecuniary value, so it really isn’t worth shoving a 500+ page contract under the noses of all people with a potential contingent estate interest in something of claimed but not actual copyright.  Our intent would be merely to have a small Ten-Tec memorial honoring W8KC, who was a personal friend of mine.

In considering what tentec.org could ultimately become, perhaps it could be the home to many items of interest to the Ten-Tec enthusiast.  A carefully edited “W8KC Memorial” would be just a very small footnote to that, and by no means anything close to the main event.  Its actual cash value would be minimal.  Should a family member ever object, now or even in the distant future, it would be removed immediately out of respect.

Ten-Tec is a very unique company, home to a lot of really cool people from the beginning, with a fascinating history.  Perhaps we might use tentec.org as a means for documenting and sharing that history on a not-for-profit basis.

I won't comment on the pecuniary value thereof, but I suspect obtaining permission from a party lacking proper authority would be unenforceable opposing any claim asserted by a proper entity in interest.   Example:   Does a licensed ham son who is not the Personal Representative of the decedent's Estate have authority to waive or convey rights devised to a widow in a testamentary document, or which belong to heirs in case of intestacy?
