Gary,

Thank you. Yes, it is rough to lose people that are close. Dave and I had been friends for 43 years. I was 21 and he was 36. His wife, Christina was also a very close friend. She passed away 2 1/2 years ago.

His ferrite sleeve article in February of 2011 started the recent development of FSL antennas, which in turn led to the related discovery of enhanced ocean cliff transoceanic propagation. He was truly a major innovator on the technical side of the hobby.
