William Borgman, K8CJQ, was a very special person.  An Amateur Extra Class, retired from the FCC, founder of Prosoft Plus, husband, father and friend.

He was special to a lot of people.  Setting an example for many, he had a positive outlook and encouraged others to do their best.

We want his memory, his standards, to continue.

We have formed the K8CJQ Memorial Club to honor his memory and to encourage others to do their best and to assist others in achieving their goals.

We are the proud sponsors of a new event - Historic Bridge Weekend.  The second event will be July 18 - 19, 2014.  Join us.  Have fun.  Enjoy the hobby.

In my position as a Director of the London Amateur Radio Club I wish to be considered as the Member of Record for the K8CJQ Memorial Club. If this is acceptable my Board will designate a Director to be the Member of Record thenceforth.

Gonna blow you guys away with the Blackfriars bridge from London !!Nobody's got our creds !!
