Ken didso much for my station when I was about 17 and 18 years old. He put up a 20 meter for element mono ban beam on a skinny Triextower. That was blown over twice and then he designed and put up a four element quad, which also came down twice. He put a lot of time in to help me out. He was such a nice guy! I’m so sorry that I didn’t make contact with him in the last 30 years or so. <br>

God bless Ken and his family and all WVARC members <br>
