I am very sad and shocked to hear of the death of Peter Bobek, DJ8WL,
on the 26th of April.
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
