I met Dave when he helped teach a General theory class at the
Birmingham Amateur Radio Club. I was a very young kid (I think Dave
was in his twenties). It was the first time I had been exposed to
circuit theory. A friend of mine and I both attended the classes
together. Both of us became electrical engineers. Dave's class was
my first step toward that accomplishment.
The first time I ever saw a real oscilloscope was when Dave Ingram was
at the controls. About fifteen years later, I was at Cray Research,
looking over Seymour Cray's shoulder, staring at a scope.
I can still remember the things I learned in Dave's class. He was a
great guy who gave a lot of himself to ham radio and helping others.
I looked forward to his articles in CQ. Seemed like I was always
learning from him. I'll miss that.
Thanks, John K6MAY
