Bert, Sorry to hear that. He was very kind to help me with my first 'Shera Board' with parts and helping to get it up and working with an HP 105B. I wrote a note to his wife a couple of months ago.
I agree with your thoughts. He went out of his way to help a stranger and I appreciate it.

There will be an obituary published tomorrow in the Santa Fe New Mexican. It should also be available online. As I have mentioned in the past I credit him with making available to time nuts, radio amateurs and other hobbyists a method to obtain precise frequency at an affordable price before commercial GPSDO's flooded the market. At the time I personally had ten cesium's thanks to the bankruptcy of Offshore Navigation I started building disciplined Rb's with the help of Brooks. Eight and counting. If there was a Hall of Fame for time nuts he would be # 1 on my list Bert Kehren _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
