Paul Maytan - AC2T (SK)
From Peter Johnson / N2TFC:
Sadly, Paul M. Maytan / AC2T became an SK this past weekend on February 4, 2024. He was born on 12/31/1934 and was 89 years old. He got his money’s worth! He was an ARRL Volunteer Examiner (VE) since 1984 for 748 exams.
(From Karl N2KZ: Paul's signature phrases were "Have a great day - and a better one tomorrow." and "The bands are open!"
Paul was a warm and wonderful friend. Oh, to visit his basement and to see his fine transceiver! It was filled with decades of memories and files and records once authored by his dedicated and wonderful wife Emily. I will miss Paul so much.)
I have known Paul since December 1993 when I took my Tech license exam with him at the Yonkers PD on Grassy Sprain Road along with his wife Emily, and other VEs who have since passed on. For many years Paul was the former Technical Engineering Director for WECA. He was also a Technical Director for the Yonkers Amateur Radio Club (YARC) for many years. Until recently, Paul would operate on HF and he would also join the CBS Retirees net at 9am on Tuesday & Thursday mornings on the 147.06 WECA repeater. One of his replies on the net was “Fine Business”! Paul is predeceased by his wife Emily (AC2V) who was also a WECA member and a VE.
