    Some very sad news....
    I’ve just heard that Rev. George Dobbs died early today from pneumonia that wouldn’t respond to antibiotics. He was suffering from Dementia too.

    A great friend...I attended his retirement service and party in Rochdale a few years ago. His church was absolutely packed!

    RIP George!

    I met George once and stayed at a holiday place he owned in Wales.

    It is sad to hear that he is no longer with us. He made a large contribution to QRP operating and was a lovely person.

    He will be missed by the amateur radio fraternity.

    It was very sad news to hear of the passing of Rev. George Dobbs. He must have given a great deal of inspiration to many Hams to have a go at building some of his simple yet very cleaver ideas on radio, myself included. I would have love to have had the chance to meet him, but that is now gone. RIP George. de John - G0WXU.
