George's NFR  was interesting.   He talked with excitement about what it 
could do for  AM broadcasting.   As he mentions in Alan's copy of his paper he 
wasn't interested in anything but bettering the AM broadcasting system.

At the SBE National Meeting held in Denver years ago,  he was actually on the 
program with a demonstration scheduled.  It was well attended by many 
engineers both radio-TV and also design EE types.

Unfortunately,  he had trouble with his receiver or transmitting system.  He 
was obiviously very dissappointed as it made him look very bad.  The attendees 
were also dissappointed as they would have liked to have seen something 
working in some way.

Dr. Frank Berry was CE of WQYK AM,  where these test were made and he made 
very positive comments. Anyone around the Tampa area know how to contact Frank 
Berry?

Also George and his wife Mary, finally retired in the Lakeland, FL area.  I 
used to visit with him every year or so.  He was a valuable source of broadcast 
history from all of his years in radio in the midwest and time with Gates 
Radio Company in several different positions.  Anyone know the status of George?

Paul Rebman bought one of George's retirement businesses,  his Broadcast 
Mailing List Service.
