Today I morn the passing of a great Patriot! Mike Kegley of the USS Edson Museum. Mike has been instrumental in day to day operation of the USS Edson Museum. Due to his love of the US Navy and his service to our country, we can touch a piece of American history by operating from the USS Edson's radio room. By operating from the USS Edson we can help the public understand American history and come to understand a little what it was like to be a Warrior who helps to keep America FREE!
Mike has asked all Amateur Radio Operators who wish to be a part of American and NAVY history to participate in bringing history alive by operating from the USS Edson's radio room. He asked all of us to help bring this history alive. Mike made us all of the USS Edson Radio Club. As long as you have an Amateur Radio license you are in the Club. Be Proud!
Prior to his death, he asked that the Amateur Radio community (the club members), help make bring history come alive by putting two marine band Radio's on the Bridge of the USS Edson. I can provide the brackets necessary to mount the radios. Paul Filiczkowski KC8ELQ has contributed one marine band radio and I have a marine band antenna that needs repair, (it needs a new center wire).
What do we need? We need to have the antenna I have repaired. We need another marine band antenna. We need another marine band radio. We need coax. How much coax I don't know. That depends where we place the antennas. I can help to build the brackets to mount the antennas if a suitable bracket is not available.
In Mike's honor let us join together to make the USS Edson a great and more representative ship of American history.
