SK: K1FO - RIP
Posted: Tue Jul 31, 2012 9:39 am
Noted author, EME'er, VHF/UHF antenna and amplifier designer and owner of Lunar-Link Systems, Steve Powlishen K1FO ("K One Far Out") became a SK on Saturday July 28.
And, whilst only a few of us would have had the chance to work or meet Steve, his antenna and amplifier designs have graced many stations in VK/ZL over the years.
The memoirs being shared on some of the EME reflectors not only describe a talented amateur, but a true gentleman who shared his passion and experience with others.

Another one of the 'greats' who contributed extensively to help shape our hobby has been lost.
RIP Steve.
