Over the past 24-48 hours I lost 2 online acquaintances. Russ was one.
The other was a man named Fred Bortash whom I have chatted with on FB. I never knew him personally but a couple of my "radio friends" did. Fred was very interested in SWL'ing and was looking forward to going to the Winter SWL fest this year in PA where he was to have a booth dealing with Russian SW radio topics . It would have been his first Winter SWL-fest and he was really excited and looking forward to it. But he never made it. I was informed that while he was en-route to the SWL-fest he was killed in a fatal car accident. What a terrible misfortune.
