It is with great sadness that we share the news that Ian Douglas, G7MFN became a Silent Key on Saturday 6 May.
Ian had held both RSGB Regional and District Representative roles for many years, as well as being a GB2RS newsreader for the Northeast of England until recently when ill health forced him to stand down. Ian was the local Aerial Planning resource in Region 4 and had great success in persuading local planning departments to allow many people to keep their aerials up so they could remain on the air.
