My great friend Larry Kayser, VA3LK, of many years in AMSAT,
QRP, and a great lover of using low to the ground yagi's for
ground enhancement on EME has passed away suddenly with a
heart attack.
Larry loved his Elecraft K1, his Elecraft KX-1. He was the
first person to complete a two way transatlantic (full QSO)
on 137 Khz. He was a big time contributor technically to
AMSAT. He loved showing me his single M^2 yagi and his 200w
producing echo's that I thought were not possible on 2 meters
off the moon using "ground" enhancement on the lake where he lived.
Larry was an indomitable spirit and it can easily be said that
Larry never did anything half way. I am sure since he spent
almost all of his efforts on Christian broadcast networks
on satellite and Shortwave in the last few years that he
hit St. Peter pretty hard as he burst through the Pearly
gates on the way to his just reward.
He will be missed.
