With sadness we pass along that Dave Pruitt, K8CC, became a Silent Key on
December 29. Dave's brother Tom, WB8VMN, reports that Dave passed away
peacefully and in no pain.
Though slowed in recent years by health issues, Dave was a very significant
contributor to the contesting community. He was a long time member and past
president of the Mad River Radio Club, author of the NA contesting logging
software, a log checker for the ARRL 10 Meter and 160 Meter contests, and
chairman of the Michigan QSO Party. He built and operated, both as single op
and multiop, a very competitive contest station in Ypislanti, Michigan.
Dave's obituary is at: David Alan Pruett Obituary - Visitation & Funeral

The Zoom meeting mentioned there will be held at 1:00 pm EST on Monday.
RIP, OM.
Jim K8MR
