I'm not sure I can add anything to Colin's and Gary's words.     I had the privilege of knowing John for somewhat longer,  to well over 20 years ago, when a Sunday afternoon phone call  came out of the blue, asking about details on a Beverage matching transformer that had been publicized in DX Monitor.   He took that ball and ran with it, writing a big article about his adventures with it.....and ever since, he had been trying new things, sharing his findings in many articles in the club bulletins, and then on the Internet, organizing DXpeditions, the Proceedings of fine tuning, a least a couple of specialist Yahoo groups, and just generally being a spark plug for the hobby.    

I don't think that anyone can replace him.
