I first met Peter, when he and his wife visited Malin Head Radio station, two years ago to hand over a qsl card for a previous 160m contact. A chance remark by me, saying I was interested in LF, led to a firm friendship and much help from Peter, particularly when I was preparing my submission to operate on LF from Ireland. Since then he has continued to help and encourage me and he recently actively helped, when I suffered a lot of qrm at my qth, by passing on information. He was so kind, a true gentleman and a shining example to Amateur radio experimenters. We will fondly remember our dear friend Peter and send our condolences to his family Finbar O'Connor EI0CF
