This is sad news. I remember Denny from my early DX'ing days in the early to mid 1980's, back when he was the usual NCS for the 15 meter "Snooky's Net." Always no-nonsense, as I recall, but always a gentleman, and always willing to lend a hand if needed.
Didn't run into him much after I realized I didn't need DX Nets anymore, but I'd still stop by once in a great while to his nets just to say hello. And it saddens me to realize that it's been over 15 years since I heard him on the air. One of the "good guys" in the DX World. He will be missed. 73, ron w3wn -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of K2EWB Sent: Monday, September 17, 2007 12:43 PM To: Undisclosed Recipient Subject: [DX-CHAT] W.D.
