I first had contact with John back in the late 80s. He wrote me
regarding my DX here on the coast. Then in 1990 on one of his
DXpeditions to Grayland State Park, before the DXpeditions were the
Grayland Motel, Dave Williams and I went up on a Saturday afternoon to
meet John and the group. We sat

I just checked email this morning... and this... just... sucks. Period.
I never met or spoke directly to John, but we have exchanged emails over the
years. He recruited me for his Mexican-DX group Corazon DX several years ago,

I like to suggest some kind of endowment for John -
to enhance and evolve the hobby we have today - moving
it forward (to steal a tired phrase).

APPROVED – Extension to 1 November 2010 of the time
Sad, shocking news... John was clearly an exceptional individual who excelled
at many things, and he took his chosen hobby to new levels that the rest of
us can only marvel at. He will be sorely missed. My deepest condolences to
his family and many friends.

I first had opportunity to interact with John when he was editing
Proceedings, and he cajoled me into writing an article about Medium Wave DX

to International DX Digest of the NRC when I edited

Well, I think John B must have put in a good word for us, as this
was, without a doubt, the best morning for a couple of months. The
lower band wasn't anything special, but the upper end of the dial was
almost of fall quality. Audio heard from:

693 Japan
738 maybe two
My wife and I sat over a cup of tea talking about John tonight. As some of you
may know, my wife Wanda is Haida and has a very Native American spirituality.
She offered this thought about John: People like John don't ever die. They

Wonderful ideas Gary. We need to keep John's legacy alive. Any chance of
