Greeting.

Sad news indeed! I talked w3ith Rob several times on the phone, and he joined my Dx club SLIDX in Saint Louis. He Dxed w/ a Radop Crap er Shack Realistic DX-300, which he fitted in his car. Car was a PACER I think! He Drove around Denver tuning in the world!! He was hysterical,with a grand sense of humor!

I am saddened to know he is gone!
