[Moon-net] Kjell, SM7BAE

[Lionel H. Edwards]

To all who knew Kjell Rasmussen, SM7BAE:

Kjell Rasmussen, SM7BAE has recently passed away. He was one month shy of 
his 80th Birthday.

Many of you will remember his premier 2M EME station and excellent 
operating from the late 1960s onwards. He provided many first time EME 
contacts to stations around the world.

My Wife and I had the privilege of meeting Kjell and his Wife at his home 
near Malmo, Sweden in 1986.

He had been active up to relatively recently on both 6M and 2M EME.

The EME fraternity has lost one of the true EME pioneers.
