I don't think I have seen this on the reflector. I didn't know Doug
personally, but a friend who worked with him at Stanford suggested
that I post this here since Doug was an avid K3 fan and an occasional
poster.

Doug was ex-KN2CHN (NY, 1952), K2CHN, W7UYE (Tucson), W0QFD (NE, MO, &
CO), and K6TZX. B.S. Stanford 1960 (mathematics).
He made DXCC Honor Roll barefoot with dipoles and verticals on a city

working with his Elecraft at 10 watts output. Doug was 72.
