Hawaii and Pacific Section Report - April 2016

Bob Schneider, AH6J, retires from his sixteen-year service as Section Manger in the ARRL Pacific Section. His early contributions to the development of repeaters have made an indelible mark on inter-island VHF/UHF communications that we all enjoy today. While dedicated to Amateur Radio during his tenure, Bob found time to participate in 125 VE sessions.

Many of you reading this tribute are licensed because of Bob’s service to the ARRL VE system. Bob’s career covers a wide range technologies and events that Hawaii’s recognized Amateur Radio Internet historian, Ron Hashiro (AH6RH), captured in an article written for this report.

As your new Section Manager I'll try to serve Amateur Radio as well as Bob. He has agreed to stay on as Assistant Section Manager for Hawaii County and I plan to call to call on him for advice and consul.
