Ted Irwin WB3DCZ, Silent Key

It is with sadness we report the passing of Theodore P. “Ted” Irwin WB3DCZ, 78, of Gardner Hill. Ted was active in the early days of the 147.39 K3PS repeater and was a regular fixture on VHF FM and SSB. He was known far and wide as a man of strong opinions, and a regular voice on the repeater.

Long-time members will remember him on the repeater, at club meetings, field day, hamfests and other activities.

He was a retired Navy SeaBee, and built his home atop Gardner Hill in Fox Township. He fell into poor health, and his license expired in 2007. We wish him a final “73”.
