Topband: Bob NM7M SK

[Nick Hall-Patch]

Thanks for passing this on Carl.   Bob was a great inspiration to those of us trying to understand medium frequency propagation.   I'm sorry I never met him personally in spite of our geographical closeness, but he sure helped me a great deal via e-mail when I was working some years back on an article about a medium wave signal strength logger and its use in propagation studies.  It was an honor to be guided by such an accomplished person.
