Title: TRSW info Dr.Tim died
Post by: kris on December 06, 2021, 0011 UTC

We’re sad to report that noted pirate radio operator Dr. Tim died late last month.  Dr. Tim was famous in Europe for his many stations, including Radio Jingle Bells, which WRMI relayed on November 13.

Am Sonntag, den 28.11.2021 ist Werner von uns gegangen. Nach einigen weniger guten Tagen im Krankenhaus ist er friedlich eingeschlafen.
Wir alle kannten ihn als Doctor Tim und egal wo er auftauchte war die Stimmung gut, vor allem auf 48 und 76 Metern. Er hat viel gemacht und jeder der sich in der Szene auskennt weiß, was für ein Urgestein er war.
Halten wir ihn in Ehren und erinnern uns an die vielen lustigen und schönen Momente, die es bei jedem Summermeeting oder DX-Camp mit ihm gab.

Werner passed away on Sunday, November 28th, 2021. After a few less good days in the hospital, he fell asleep peacefully.
We all knew him as Doctor Tim and no matter where he appeared, the atmosphere was good, especially at 48 and 76 meters. He did a lot and everyone who knows the scene knows what kind of veteran he was.
Let us cherish him and remember the many funny and beautiful moments that we had with him at every summer meeting or DX camp.
