Peter Halpin PH1PH (PE1MHO) - SK

The following sad news from Dick G0BPS.
Over the last few years Peter worked closely with Simon Brown/HB9DRV in developing the first class Ham Radio Deluxe software (Logging/Mapping/PSK31/satellite tracking) which can be freely downloaded from http://www.hb9drv.ch/

His passing is a great loss to the Amateur community.

Peter Halpin PH1PH (PE1MHO) - SK

Dick Pascoe G0BPS

It is with deep sadness that I have to report the death today of my good friend Peter Halpin.

Peter was given a short time to live after being diagnosed with cancer - he defied all the doctors and lived for an active three years longer than was expected.

Those that also knew him will join me in the memory of a guy that loved life even though it had not treated him well.

He will best be remembered by his contribution to the software 'Ham Radio Delux' (which I am convinced gave him a will to live far longer than expected) and his successes on 6m.

I spoke to Peter on Monday and he told me how bad things were, tonight his wife Jeanette phoned me to tell me the news.

I shall be giving the Eulogy at his funeral on Tuesday of next week at his request.

Peter and Jeanette have been close friends of my wife and I for about 20 years - we will miss him.....
