I’d like to express my condolences to Charlie’s family and friends. Charlie was a role model for me, growing up in East Liverpool and wanting to be a ham radio operator. I have thought of him fondly over the years. I am still an active amateur mostly CW and former Triangle Radio Club member. My original call was WA8JDW but I shortened it to K8IW. My regards to Charlie’s family.
