[HCDX] Radio Free Bougainville RIP
I don't know whether anyone reported this or not, but I noticed the
following obituary in the July 31st Victoria Times-Colonist:
" Francis Ona. Bougainville separatist proclaimed himself king"....
It's too long to quote here, but I found another site with a link:

We should remember this is the fellow who was behind Radio Free
Bougainville....from whom I received a QSL (actually it was from Sam
Voron) ten or more years ago now. I still recall the story they told, of a
coconut oil powered generator and an output of 40 watts on 3850. Those
were the days!..........Walt.
