RIP Ron D Dozier (aka KeepItSimpleStupid), 26-Feb-1957—26-Sep-2021

It is with great sadness that I advise the passing of Ron Dozier (Wilmington, DE), a former member of this forum, on 26 September 2021, possibly from a heart attack, aged 64.

I first encountered Ron in November 2008, when he was posting here about the venerable dbx 4BX audio expander. He appeared to be the only person on the WWW, that I could find, at least, who had circuit diagrams ('schematics') and other technical data on the 4BX. After some two-way correspondence, he was kind enough to share some circuit diagrams with me, as I was doing some work on 4BX accessories at the time (noise-immune replacement IR receiver, and capacitive-touch remote control unit).

We subsequently struck-up an enduring friendship, and communicated regularly (mostly on electronic topics) since then, till his last e-mail to me on 23-Sep-2021.

RIP Ron.
