Bob Heil K9EID/SK. Rest in Peace.

Our beloved founder, Dr. Bob Heil, K9EID, is now a Silent Key. Bob fought a valiant, year-long battle with cancer, and passed peacefully surrounded by his family. Bob’s lifelong passion for amateur radio was clear to everyone involved in the hobby. Everything Bob did for the betterment and growth of amateur radio - from his instructional handbooks and countless presentations to his support of the ARRL and youth programs - was based on the foundation and spirit of service. Bob was an Elmer to all of us. While Bob’s presence will dearly be missed, his impact on the hobby and everyone in it will forever be felt. On behalf of Bob to all ham radio operators worldwide, 73.

We would like to thank everyone that came out to JOTA today. We had many scouts there and 6 people test for amateur radio with two successful technicians . We really enjoyed the three stations that we had on the air. Two HF and one CW station. 11 scouts received their radio merit badge. One scout is now a licensed amateur radio operator.
