Gus VO1MP passed away on Monday at age 81.
Gus was a very active and accomplished contester for many years. He was
also active as VO1XX and VO2CQ.
I knew Gus well. We did a lot of antenna work together and had many
discussions on a wide variety of topics He was my closest ham friend
while I lived in Newfoundland in the 2000s.
He was proud to say “I was born in Newfoundland, but I wasn’t born in
Canada.” He was seven years old when Newfoundland and Labrador became
Canada’s tenth province
