Re: [wsjt-devel] Future of Hamlib #hamlib
Mike - Very sorry to hear of this diagnosis, but you never know what cures are around the corner! As a metastatic melanoma survivor, I just hope I can hang on long enough for them to perfect enough treatments that some combination will work on me if/when it comes back. Many thanks for your HUGE contribution to ham radio and best wishes for many more years ahead of you.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Future of Hamlib #hamlib
Hi Mike, So very sorry about the diagnosis... Hope you are able to get any treatment/medication necessary (though, as you say, with ALS the future is unknown). If any assistance with Hamlib is needed, as an (ir)regular contributor I can try to provide my help to any new maintainer(s). So feel free to share my contact details if you think it would be useful. 73, Mikael OH3BHX On Fri, Mar 10, 2023, at 06:23, Black Michael via wsjt-devel wrote: > Thanks Joe -- I've been diagnosed with ALS so the future prognosis is > not good -- but unknown really. > Gradual decline is expected. > > Mike > > > > > > > > > On Thursday, March 9, 2023 at 04:37:50 PM CST, Joe Taylor via > wsjt-devel wrote: > > > > > > Hi Mike, > > Just a note to say I'm very sorry to learn of your health issues.
