Thanks Terry for the info. I knew John for a long time. He used to
rent my house in C6. He also built the first C6AFP beacon. It was
assembled in a cigar box, installed in the attic and had a short coax
run to a Ringo AR-6 antenna. John was certainly a promoter of six
meters. I had no idea he was ill, if he was. The beacon is still on
the air, now at my brother's house on Green Turtle Cay. John's passing
is a great loss to the six-meter community.
Steve, N4JQQ/C6AFP
73 and RIP John
