Thanks for passing this on Ingolf.  I first worked Rusty on 432 EME in 1979 and later on 1296. He always had a great signal. He will be missed

Fellow Moonbouncers,

 

I sadly learnt from Russ Facebook page that he peacefully passed away at his home on Friday February 27, 2015.

 

I first worked Russ, as K4QIF from Virginia, via the moon on 23 cm in 1985. Russ had one of the big signals on 23 cm at that time as well as later from NC. He was also active on 70 cm EME. As colleges in the same business and company we met 17 years ago at conferences. I also enjoyed Russ great hospitality at his home when visiting in NC in September 2000. I never got the opportunity to work him via the moon from NC.

 

Our thoughts goes to his family. 

 

Rest in peace Russ, your signals will travel among the stars for ever.

 

73 Ingolf, SM6FHZ
