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.</p>

"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."=

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.</p>

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."</p>
