John died on Monday 29 January after a severe illness. He was 84 years old."
John was a highly respected member of the Wireless Institute of Australia and was secretary of the Victorian Division for several years.
John could be found on two metres SSB but also on the much lower frequencies including the Coffee Break AM net on 160 metres and on 136kHz.
John was also a keen amateur astronomer and had been a member of the Astronomical Society of Victoria since 1956.
A memorial service will be held for John Adcock on Friday 9 February 2018.
The service will be held at the Glenroy Oak Park Baptist Church, 9-11 Watt Avenue, Oak Park (3046), at 10:00 am.
Vale John Adcock VK3ACA, now a silent key.
