WA7LJU is a silent key. David Hughes Horne, P.E., passed away on April 27, 2019 following an extended battle with Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson's Disease.
David and his twin, Jonathan, were born October 25, 1935 in Salt Lake City to Dr. Lyman Merrill Horne and Myrtle Clara Swainston, their third set of twins. He attended East High School and later studied chemical engineering (B.S.) and engineering administration (MEA) at the University of Utah.
