Hello ALL -
It is with a heavy heart that I inform my colleagues on the ARRL Board of the passing of Bill Tynan, W3XO, of Kerrville, TX. I have received news that Bill passed peacefully on Tuesday August 7th.
First licensed as W3KMv in 1946, Bill was a past President of AMSAT and conductor of "The World above 50 MHz". Bill was a life member of the ARRL and AMSAT, a member of the Board of Directors for SMIRK, and a member of the Radio Club of America and the Hill Country Amateur Radio Club.
According to his wishes there will be no services. A auto-biographical summary of his radio experiences can be found at www.kerrhams.org/W3XO.pdf A message that has been passed along in the VHF reflectors indicate that Mattie, his wife, is being helped by her brother and is doing better.
Respectfully,
- Kermit Carlson W9XA
