Hello AMSATs,
I just wanted to write some message on AMSAT-BB, and then I read the sad
message about silent key of Robert VU2MKP.
It is a great lost for the HAM world. I made several contacts with Robert via
the old bird AO-10, which was a great joy.
Later when I was in Bangalore, India, I got the chance to meet him in person.
I was very amazed to see how he uses his radios, and laptop computer with a
small stick in his mouth. He did have lots of positive energy, even when he
lost lots of his body functions. A great man and ham with real ham spirit.
My condolences to his family,
May his soul rest in peace,
William Leijenaar PE1RAH
