GB2RS Newsreader Peter Valentine, G0NQZ silent key
The RSGB wishes to record, with sadness, the passing of GB2RS Newsreader Peter Valentine, G0NQZ at the grand age of 101.
Age was no barrier to Peter. At a mere 96, he walked 96 miles for his local hospital charity, and he was still broadcasting GB2RS from Eastbourne in his 100th year. He was described by a fellow Newsreader as a true ambassador for amateur radio.
Peter had a wonderfully distinctive voice on the air and for many years he also read a talking newspaper for the blind. Our thoughts are with Peter’s wife Heather and family.
