 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. One delete !vote without rationale and no discussion of the source presented despite two relists, I see no point in relisting yet again.  So Why  12:12, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

non notable, and too much like a memorial tribute. There is no RS that he developed the first solar radio--a tribute that a congressman puts into the congressional record can say anything. and it doesn't have to be an actual speech, and almost never is. --they have the right to add what ever they like,

The anecdote reported is non-notable and inappropriate.  DGG ( talk ) 20:22, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment It is not just an anecdote - there is a 1957 press clipping that reports it was the first solar radio to be available for sale commercially to the public. My feeling is that there is notability, but that the article has been put together using whatever could be easily found online. Specialist sources, probably in the scientific or trade press, might indicate that notability better. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 14:18, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete I know it isn't to good to !vote at the same AfD I relisted, but I doubt this is going to get Relist #4. L3X1 (distænt write)   )evidence(  01:35, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
