I was shocked when I heard this news today. I have many fond memories of working the AMSAT booth at the Boxboro,MA hamfest with Arthur over the last several years. He will be missed in the AMSAT community. He's presence on the FM birds was always a welcome contact by all. N1ORC keep tryin....

Arthur Z. Rowe, N1ORZ Silent Key
On or about Tuesday November 6 2007, Arthur Z. Rowe became a Silent Key.
Many of you may know Arthur from his email postings on space related topics on the Amsat and Sarex bulletin boards. Arthur was a good friend and an avid manned space station enthusiast. He was well known by many of the Mir and ISS ham crews.
When I became too busy to post the Marex news, Arthur stepped right in with his own new items to keep us informed. His last Sarex message was posted the day before he became a silent key.
