G3FXB Rumor confirmed

[Doug.Grant at analog.com]

I spoke with Nigel, G3TXF this morning after I saw Rus Healy's note.

He hadn't heard anything, but after a few phone calls, he confirmed that Al
died last night of a heart attack.

He had a heart attack about 15 years ago, after which he went into
semi-retirement (which partially explains his high level of amateur activity).

A sad for contesting indeed.
