NEWSLINE ALUM MERT GARLICK, N6AWE - SK
One final sad note. Longtime Newsline listeners will remember the voice of
Mert Garlick, N6AWE. We're saddened to report that Mert became a silent
key Wednesday December 23rd. Mert was an engineer with Fox Television in
Los Angeles from 1966 until his retirement in 2003. He worked with the late
Bill Pasternak, WA6ITF at Fox 11. Over the years he did every job a
broadcast engineer could perform at a television station. From manning the
transmitter atop Mt. Wilson to microwaving signals back from the scene of
a breaking news story to covering the annual Tournament of Roses Parade in
Pasadena, Mert did it all and then some. The funeral will be held December
30th in Long Beach, California, and he will be buried alongside his late
wife in Wyoming. Sadly, she just passed 4 months ago. He is survived by 3
children, 2 of which are also hams. Mert Garlick, N6AWE was 75.
