Thank you everyone for your words, thoughts and prayers for his family.

I didn't know Mr Marconi but I gather he was an intelligent well liked gentleman. Prayers to his grieving family and may he rest in peace.
Here is Marconi and Scott, 4040 from the dock of the bay playing with antennas on the radio halfway across the US.
It was always easy to pick his voice out even if the band was over run with signals.

I also didn't know Marconi but this Watergate was really nice to hear that's pretty cool you have that.
Sounded like he was a fun guy to talk to.
I said a prayer for his family and friends.

Rest in peace Marconi. Worked old Grampa a couple times on the air last cycle..
Sorry to hear the news, I didn't know the man but sounds like we need more of his personality in this world and I'm sure he will be rewarded with peace and good thoughts. I do remember him giving me a like in one of the antenna threads in here which I seen as a compliment coming from someone of his knowledge and skill. Wish his family well in their time of grieving.

Knew and talked to Eddie on the radio for over 30 years. 200 miles as the crow flies. GP to GP - Mother Nature and 1600'+ height difference helped out. In the 90's, it was usually once a week. I showed up on his contact lists when he was doing his antenna comparisons. Later on, we talked on the phone and in the forum. In 2019, he called me up and said he wanted me to come pick up his radio gear, that he wanted it to go to a good home. I hooked up a U-Haul and drove to Houston and met Eddie, Tonya and Harry. Nice people and nice to be able to finally put a face to the voice. I will miss him and our conversations.
