Such sad news. Harry was icon for the ARRL and Amateur Radio! Below is a picture taken after my speech at the ARRL Centennial. Harry wanted to meet me and it was one of the most memorable experiences I've had in Amateur Radio. RIP my friend. 73,Rick - K5UR -----Original Message----- From: Minster, David NA2AA (CEO) <dminster@arrl.org> To: arrl-odv <arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org> Sent: Tue, Aug 30, 2022 2:06 pm Subject: [arrl-odv:34055] Harry Dannals, W2HD, ARRL President Emeritus, SK <!--#yiv9890624069 _filtered {} _filtered {}#yiv9890624069 #yiv9890624069 p.yiv9890624069MsoNormal, #yiv9890624069 li.yiv9890624069MsoNormal, #yiv9890624069 div.yiv9890624069MsoNormal {margin:0in;font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri", sans-serif;}#yiv9890624069 span.yiv9890624069EmailStyle17 {font-family:"Calibri", sans-serif;color:windowtext;}#yiv9890624069 .yiv9890624069MsoChpDefault {font-family:"Calibri", sans-serif;} _filtered {}#yiv9890624069 div.yiv9890624069WordSection1 {}-->We have received news from K4DU that Harry Dannals, W2HD, ARRL President Emeritus has become a Silent Key.

I heard about this as well. He is a former Hudson Division Director. Frank N2FF credits him with good advice when he started out. I also remember him from centennial - still very much involved and dedicated to ham radio and ARRL.

Sorry to hear the news. Over the years of my involvement with ARRL I had the opportunity to visit with Harry a number of times. He was always gracious and gave good advice. I always appreciated the time we spent together. He definitely was one of the ARRL “legends.” Rod Amateur Radio W6ROD ARRL Int’l Affairs Vice President
