I remember meeting\nhim many times and will continue to remember him as a humble and fine human\nbeing. He was a life member of AMSAT INDIA and has advised and shared his\ninputs during the design of VO-52. He was also one of the early VU station\non the AO-40 and other satellites.\n\nPhotograph of Robert in his shack can be viewed by visiting\nhttp://www.amsatindia.org/images/photogallery/VU2MKP.jpg \n\n\nMay his soul rest in peace.\n\n \nNitin [VU3TYG]\nwww.amsatindia.org \n\n\n> _____ \n> \n> From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On\n> Behalf Of Mani VU2WMY\n> Sent: Tuesday, June 09, 2009 2:32 PM\n> To: [email protected]; AMSAT-INDIA; [email protected];\n> [email protected]\n> Subject: [amsatindia] Re: [VUHams] VU2MKP Silent Key\n> \n> It is a shocking and a very sad news.
