[VHFcontesting] Fwd: [PVRC] Fw: K3HCE Silent Key

[Ed Kucharski]

This indeed is very sad news.  I have very fond memories of working Bill 
both from his Baltimore and Rock Hall QTH's dating back to the late 
70's.  He was one of my first 432Mhz contacts.  Bill was always a true 
gentleman and seemed to always find time to get on during a contest to give 
out points even if he wasn't working the contest.  In recent years he could 
be found almost daily on 6m listening for that new country.  It's ironic 
that he lost his life on the way home from a baseball game as we spent many 
QSO's talking baseball and the O's.  He will be missed.
