SILENT KEY - YASME pioneer Danny Weil
(VP2VB) died on 3 October in San Antonio (Texas) at 85
years of age. Born in England, Danny left his homeland in
1954 in a boat he made by himself in order to travel the
world alone. "In 1963, after 9 years, 3 boats and
travels to the Atlantic, the Carribean and the Pacific
Islands, Danny completed his around the world voyage.
Needing a means of communication, he taught himself Morse
Code, radio theory and obtained a British Amateur radio
license. Sailing single handedly around the world was a
trip he volunteered to undertake on behalf of radio
'hams'. His voyage was integral in setting up ham radio
stations on remote islands and the expedition was
monitored by over 100,000 amateur radio enthusiasts
around the world. He is remembered by most 'hams' as 'the
first DXpeditioner'". [TNX K0HB/KG6AQI]
