WSJT-X Core Developer Goes SK

/

Sad news now. We learned from Joe Taylor, K1JT, that Bill Somerville, G4WJS, died suddenly and unexpectedly.

He was only about 65 years old.

Bill was the first to join Joe in 2013, forming a core development group for WSJT-X.

He helped to bring the overall program structure more nearly up to professional standards.

Moreover, he devoted countless hours to program support, patiently answering users’ questions on WSJT-related forums.
