My first contact with ON4UN was in 2006 when I finally moved and got
enough space to put up a 160 antenna. I have worked him many times
since. His Low Band DXing Books I use as reading material when waiting
in a doctors office or anyplace where I have to wait for something.

I am very sad to hear that John ON4UN passed away.
As a person who also loves the Low band and Contests like him,
I would like to write a memory of him.
I participated in the DX Pediction in 1985 as a Low band CW operator

Like so many others who gravitated to the low bands, John's "Low-Band DXing"
books became my low-band bible with each subsequent volume adding new insight.
I owe much of my low-band success over the years to John and his comprehensive
books. It was also a pleasure to work John in so many DX
His low Band Book was, and still is my bible that got me setup for
Topband and low band Dxing,,

Rest in Peace John!!!

I'm sorry I never got to meet him in person. His books taught me so much and

My great friend and ham radio mentor John ON4UN has passed away.
Please find below a mail from his
Sad. Another one gone. I have a couple of his books and found them quite
useful.
Like most of you, have worked John countless times on the low bands, and
more recently either casually on 20m from my MINI (mobile) just tuning
across him calling CQ randomly, or in a CWOps Wed CWT "1 hour
There were few experts like John. His latest *Low Band Dxing* book is the
most important amateur radio publication in my library.
He left us with a lot to be grateful for, and which will also greatly
benefit those starting out on 160m and higher.
Don't forget! John also used to be active on the
