    Heath and Wellfare

    It is with great sadness that we must inform you of the passing of club member Richard Bauer, N9DKO. He passed on July 30th. He was a long time club member.

    Rich was fascinated by radio, electronics, computers, and amateur (ham) radio, always eager to explore new technology and share his knowledge with others. He would often sign off his messages with “73” – shorthand in amateur radio circles for “Best Regards.”
