Re: [IRCA] John Bryant endowment suggestion
As a foreign DXer I am sure the International DX Community will be benefited. I stress the need to have John Bryant's works published online for the benefit of foreign DXers that haven't had read those referential material. As in all aspects of life, improving culture is a must for every individual if he wants to grow as a person. As in other aspects of life, the same applies to DXing, its phenomena and its techniques. A better dissemination of information will bring better DXers worldwide. Horacio A.

I hope we can go somewhere with them. Already, the tributes are being collected. Wouldn't a website with the "complete works of John Bryant" be a fitting tribute to start?

[IRCA] John Bryant endowment suggestion
Tossing some ideas around as the inspiration comes. John was one of those larger than life guys who could not be contained in one lifetime. And yet. I like to suggest some kind of endowment for John - to enhance and evolve the hobby we have today - moving it forward (to steal a tired phrase). Getting together his collected works, technical and otherwise - and into a book is brilliant. Sponsoring events. Placing radio equipment with new hobbyists. Perhaps even a website that will house, in perpetuity, his memory and works - or better yet, a memorial space for all the folks that made the hobby what it is today. Tossing them out there.
