Former WWII naval radio operator SK

The Western Gazette reports that WWII Naval Radio operator and radio amateur Les Morgan, G0WDG has passed away at the age of 87.

He was a radio operator in the North Atlantic, working on minesweepers and convoy ships.

On retiring he continued with his gardening and enthusiasm for electrical and mechanical gadgets. In particular he took up amateur radio, going to evening classes to gain his licence as a Morse Code operator, and enjoyed going to radio rallies and getting in contact with other enthusiasts across the UK and even Europe through his radio.
