No one likes to think about this, but sooner or later, everyone, ham radio
operator or not, passes away. When that happens to a ham radio operator, they
are termed "A Silent Key" (SK).

The monthly publication of the American Radio Relay League (QST), has at least
one or 2 pages per month, toward the back of each issue...noting that "It is
with deep regret, that we record the passing of these amateurs".

There is also an SK category on packet radio.

Those who have gone on before us, helped to make the hobby what it is today.
