[Moon-net] Peter Carey ZS6JT - SK

[peter blair]

 Its very sad to hear of the death of Peter ZS6NG. We first worked on 432 in 
August 1975 under his call of ZE5JJ and with his 128 element co-linear array 
and my 5m dish. He then built a dish and we then worked on 1296 with that 
call and then again of course when he moved to South Africa and became 
ZS6NG.  He was a great guy with the strength of character, determination and 
skill to overcome many problems and blaze a trail in those early days of 
EME.
 My condolences to his family, RIP Peter.
Peter G3LTF
