ARLX001 Dennis Motschenbacher, K7BV (SK)

 

Former ARRL and Yaesu employee, World Radiosport Team Championship competit= or, and award-winning radio amateur Dennis Motschenbacher, K7BV, has become=
a Silent Key. Motschenbacher passed away on January 9, 2025, after a long = illness.

 

Motschenbacher was first licensed at the age of 13. According to his obitua= ry, "His Amateur Radio activities took him to 35 countries and his ham=
radio call sign, K7BV, was recognized all over the world. He competed on t=
he U.S. team in the World Radiosport
Team Championship in 2000 in Slovenia and in his lifetime, won many nation=
al and international awards for his ham radio achievements."

 

Motschenbacher was well known within the amateur radio community. He was a = prolific ham radio author and from 1998 - 2002 served as editor of the Nati= onal Contest Journal (NCJ). He served on ARRL staff as the Sales and Market= ing Manager from 2002 - 2006, when
he joined Yaesu as their Executive Vice President of the Amateur Radio Sal=
es Division. He retired from that role in 2019.

 

His colleagues at Yaesu remember him fondly. Yaesu National Sales Manager J= ohn Kruk, N9UPC, passed along these words on behalf of the company:

 

"Dennis Motschenbacher had a talent in ham radio which was only surpas= sed by his incredible gift of friendship. Dennis was a mentor to many in di= fferent ways, a beacon of honesty, and gave unwavering support to all. Word=
s cannot express how grateful the Yaesu
family was to have had him in our lives. Thank you for being you, for your=
wisdom, and for the joy you would bring to us each day Dennis. We will for= ever cherish the moments we've shared with all our love and gratitude.&quot= ;

 

Many others in amateur radio are recalling fond memories of Motschenbacher.=
ARRL Copy Editor Rich Moseson, W2VU, was the long-time editor of CQ Magazi= ne. He said Motschenbacher was one of the 'good guys.' "Dennis was a t= rue friend to everyone in the ham radio
industry and always had a positive outlook, on the hobby and on life in ge= neral. Even through his health struggles, he managed to stay positive and o= ffer support to others. He will be greatly missed by the ham community, and=
especially by those who had the
privilege of working with him," said Moseson.

 

His contest chops and warm presence in the hobby was complimented by his de= sire to serve others. "Dennis loved amateur radio and worked tirelessl=
y to support the community in so many ways," said ARRL Director of Mar= keting and Innovation Bob Inderbitzen, NQ1R,
who reported to Motschenbacher during his tenure on the ARRL staff. "= I'll never forget the day Dennis decided to travel to the coastal communiti=
es in the southeast that were devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. He a= ided one of the largest disaster response
efforts by Amateur Radio Operators in the US."

 

He is survived by his brother, Larry Motschenbacher; his sister Susie Corbe=
tt Motschenbacher; his wife, Lieksa Motschenbacher; his two children, Tiffa=
ny (Said) Stabou and Patrick (Susan) Motschenbacher; and three grandchildre=
n, Ahmed, Aisha, and Safiya.

 

A small graveside ceremony will be held at the Eastern Carolina State Veter= ans Cemetery in Goldsboro, NC on Friday, January 17, 2025 at noon. See his = obituary at:

"Dennis Motschenbacher had a talent in ham radio which was only surpas= sed by his incredible gift of friendship. Dennis was a mentor to many in di= fferent ways, a beacon of honesty, and gave unwavering support to all. Word=
s cannot express how grateful the Yaesu
family was to have had him in our lives. Thank you for being you, for your=

industry and always had a positive outlook, on the hobby and on life in ge= neral. Even through his health struggles, he managed to stay positive and o= ffer support to others. He will be greatly missed by the ham community, and=
especially by those who had the
privilege of working with him," said Moseson.

 

His contest chops and warm presence in the hobby was complimented by his de= sire to serve others. "Dennis loved amateur radio and worked tirelessl=
