November 3, 2005 -- The ARRL
accepts notifications regarding the deaths of radio amateurs or former radio
amateurs (if the reporting individual can provide proof of past licensure,
including call sign) for possible inclusion in the QST "Silent
Keys" listing. Actual published obituaries or copies of death certificates
are the preferred means of notification but are not absolutely necessary. The
League also will accept notifications from family members or friends of the
deceased or from other amateurs. The following information is required: name,
call sign (or formerly held call sign) and last known address of the deceased
radio amateur. Current or past ARRL membership is not a
requirement for inclusion in QST "Silent Keys." Individuals
reporting the Silent Key should provide name, address and call sign (if any).
Mail, fax (860-594-0303) or e-mail information to Silent Key Administrator, sk@arrl.org
Allow up to two weeks for acknowledgement via e-mail.
