Many thanks to a number of SWLing Post readers who sent me this message–a re-post from the IRCA mailing list:
Death of Andrew Ikin- Wellbrook Communications
From: Tracey Gardner

I am the bearer of very sad news.
My good friend Andrew Ikin of Wellbrook Communications passed away on 25th October 2023 after a very short illness.
He was buried on 10th November, a day before his 79th birthday.
He is buried in the local churchyard in Beulah.
Andrew was internationally known and respected, his products were second to none and his reputation for customer service renowned.
I was lucky enough to count him as a friend and I will sorely miss him.
The amateur radio and radio listener fraternity have lost a true colossus.
