[Mich VHF UHF Society] NE8I/b

[Stan Mattson]

Lloyd's 10 Ghz beacon is still in operation here in EN74ic, we never got the IDer to change to W8MIL, I believe he said a Brit could supply a modified ID chip.

Stan, W8MIL

Having known Lloyd for over 40 years; knowing his passion for VHF/UHF and especially microwave equipment and activity; considering his dedication to activating many grids on many bands through Rovering both during and outside of contests and having benefited from his willingness to share that knowledge, I can’t think of a better way to pay tribute to him and his legacy.  Lloyd was a smart, talented, humble man who would probably decline such a suggestion.  But having a Club call sign that represented something other than just a randomly issued extra class vanity call sign is an honor fitting NE8I’s contributions to VHF/UHF.  I support and second the nomination of NE8I to become the new MIVUS Club call and the issuing of NE8I/b for any club sponsored or supported beacons located around the Sate of Michigan.   With regard to NE8I/b or NE8I/p operations QSL cards, there needs to be some thought and discussion hi hi.
