Greetings to all.
Following a suggestion from a friend, I wish to draw folk's attention to a 'Tributes' listing in today's Courier-Mail newspaper.

Alan was one of the very early VHF pioneers of South-East Queensland and was a keen experimenter in many things, including amateur radio. He may well have been a founding member of the Brisbane VHF Group.
Although his health had of recent years precluded him from active amateur radio, he was always interested in being involved and keeping up to date on what had been happening. He will be missed by all who knew him!
Best 73,
--Doug Friend, VK4OE.
