<DIV>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.</DIV>
