Arthur Barrett, G2BWW, 6 August 2018

| September 19, 2018

I should like to record the peaceful death of my father, Arthur Barrett G2BWW, on 6 August 2018 aged 96.

The original Artificial Aerial licence 2BWW was issued in the late 1930s and initially held by my Grandmother on his behalf, as my Father was under 21 at the time.

He served in the RAF during WW2 as a Radar Mechanic and was keenly interested in television post-war and operated 70 and 23cm ATV in his later life.

Tribute by Andrew Barrett, G8DOR
