Friends Remembered
W2GQQ Andersen Greig W2GQQBy: K1XV I
only met Greig within the last year or so on the morning net on 3834.
He would always check in with a hearty "GOOD MORNING! GOOD MORNING! GOOD
MORNING! While Greig's voice sounded like that of a 110 year old, his
mind was that of a man of 60. Born in this country, he grew up in
Norway, and returned to the USA as a young adult. As a result, he had a
charming light Norwegian accent.
I understand Greig passed at the age of 96. His was quite vigorous right up to the end. His long and good life should be celebrated. We will all miss him very much. |
Shack Showcase
 Aland Island at night Aland Island at nightHere's
a night shot of the Aland Island operation of OH0W. The shack is on
top of a rocky hill, a hundred meters or so from the ocean where the
weather can be very rough and windy. At one time the site had ten
towers; now there are just two or three. The QTH is reached by ferry,
and with a car it takes 4-5 hours from Helsinki (the ferry trip
included).
