I, too, have fond memories of working Bill, primarily from his Rock Hall,
MD QTH around 1980 and later.  He always had a rock-crushing signal into
Philadelphia, where I lived at the time.  His signal was the first one
that helped me discover how loud one could be on paths with a lot of
water.

He was very interesting to talk to and always very active on 144 MHz and
the other bands.

RIP Bill.  We will miss you.

73,
