Those of you who attended the ARRL donor reception in Dayton this year may remember that I spoke of Michael Owen, VK3KI, a colleague and friend for more than 35 years.
 
I deeply regret having to report that Michael died yesterday. Earlier today President Craigie sent condolences to WIA and to Michael's wife Nan and their family.
 
Additional details have been posted on the WIA website:
