Re: [IRCA] Whatever happened to David Reitz? (was: Whatever happened to Tim Hall)

[Rick Dau <drummer1965usa@xxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff Kadet still is a big collector of TV Guides, but he lives in Macomb, Illinois, just on the other side of town from Frank Merrill.  Alan Merriman's participation in the DX hobby goes WAAAAY back, to the 1950s, and he was still coming to NRC conventions as recently as 2002.  He didn't make it to Omaha this past October, so he may be retired from DXing now, I dunno. 
 
And I agree, an archival database sounds like a fun idea.  While I was in IRCA the first time around, the 25th Anniversary issue of DX Monitor came out, in March 1989.  In it, there were dozens of photos of members past and (then) present, along with a reprint of the first issue of DX Monitor from 1964.  Later in 1989, I phoned Ric Heald during a get-together that he hosted, and I believe I talked to Jim Hiliker during that conversation, too. 

73,

Rick,
 
I don't know the guy you are looking for, but do remember Jeff Kadet of Maryland I think. He always had some great loggings. I think he was a big collector of TV Guides....or am I dreaming? 
 
I would love to know where a bunch of folks are...like Alan Merriman, of VA. We should  have some sort of archival database!

But I'm wondering if anyone out there knows whatever became of DXer David Reitz of Fern Creek (metro Louisville), Kentucky.  David was very active in IRCA during the last 1980s and early 1990s, and I stayed over at his place both to and from the 1990 IRCA/Monitoring Times convention in Knoxville (he also travelled to that convention with me, Frank Merrill, and FM/TV DXer Jeff Kadet).  I lost track of David sometime in the early 90s, so I would appreciate it if anyone who is in contact with him can let me know his whereabouts.  He was a good friend -- one of many I've met -- in this hobby.
