Hi John,

it's shocking to hear such a news. For those who didn't
know him, he was very famous not only in EME world but
as well as for OK/OM VHF DXers. Ivo had old callsign
OK2VCG (later OK2WCG), he did first 2m Meteor scatter
QSO from OK (3rd in Europe), first 2m Auroral QSO from OK,
many Czech tropo records, first reception of EME signals
(in OK) from Arecibo on 70cm [1964], he did many first QSOs
from OK abroad. After Russian invasion in year 1968 he emigrated
into ZS6. For my OK friends it was big pleasure to speak with
him in Czech language via Oscar 10 and later via EME.




I'm sad that I didn't meet him personally, but we had many
nice discussions via emails, especially about the history.


Ivo you will be missed. R.I.P.


Matej, OK1TEH
