This is very sad news. Besides his work with AMSAT, I remember Dee as being one of the examiners who graded and/or signed my Proof of Passing Certificate after my taking an FCC Commercial General Radiotelephone Operator License exam back in the mid-1990s. He will be missed. 73, de John, KD2BD -- Visit John on the Web at: http://www.qsl.net/kd2bd/
