Howdy -
Ron Crouse, W7EA, passed away recently. He was the owner of Dunestar and
died of some degenerative disease. He was W7GJS when I got my Novice in
Moses Lake, WA and he was a young broadcast engineer when I first met him. It
took me awhile - a page and a half in my log book - to make my first contact
and that was only after Ron came over and diagnosed a poor PL259 solder job.
He eventually wound up in St. Helens, OR, where he started Dunestar and made
many contest useful filters and other products. He was a good guy and like
some of us, made his hobby his vocation. I was glad to know him. Cheers,Steve
