Very Sad News From Inovato Quadra

[@JamesHindsW5ATJ]

Praying for Michael. Thanks for putting out the video Mike.

[@JimmyKI5PRK]

Thank you Mike for putting out this video. I could tell it wasn't easy for you. 73 buddy.

[@BradSnyder1]

I got the email the other day about this. Cancer does suck. My thoughts are with him and his family while they go through this and I hope he pulls through. I went ahead and bought the accessories for mine.

[@alexanderluna1158]

Wishing and praying for the best for him and his family. I’ve wanted one for a long time. Just ordered it. Thank you for all you have done for the Amateur Radio community. 73.

[@MI7DJT]

Sending prayers. I have pancreatitis but keep it under control really good thankfully with a healthy diet. He had a great thing going too. So sad.

[@ShoMoto-ko1ix]

Keep up on your doctors visits, blood tests, and CAT scans. I had pancreatitis 2 years ago. The doctor thought that it was gall stones. In March 2024, I was in terrible pain. My abdominal tract felt like it was ready to explode. A trip to the emergency room and a CAT scan found a 5 cm malignant tumor on the tail of the pancreas. Now, it's 7cm. I don't have energy to do anything. Take care of yourself.

@@ShoMoto-ko1ix God bless you pal, that pain is horrific.. I know it well.

[@ShoMoto-ko1ix]

​@@MI7DJTThank you.

I just received my order of a fan and stand for my Quadra last week. What a great product with Great Support!I am very sorry to hear of Michael’s illness. Sending prayers from CT. 73, Kevin NZ1I

[@caroleemoreno8086]

Wow. Very sad news. Prayers going out to him and his family.

[@KL5TY-Bill-Alaska]

I saw that screen on so many videos. Your update on this video took me straight away to their site and I bought one.

[@jackK5FIT]

Very sad news. Thanks for the heads up Mike.

[@ik04]

Hey Mike, I was one of the original Inovato customers and I built many T95 Mini and T95Max units. As long as the image files are available, anyone can still build one from the T95 Mini. Hopefully, the T95 will be around for a good while, or at least a compatible unit with the proper H6 microprocessor. I have several Quadras and converted T95s on hand and can provide some to anyone interested. I designed and build a 3D printed case with a fan and huge heatsink and the .stl files are available online. I can't take on the job of taking over the Forum or the softeare development, but I'll help any way I can. de K4IVE

[@dave-temeculaca8059]

Very sad..I just ordered one. Prayers to the family.

[@randyhavener1851]

So sorry to hear this! Prayers to Michael.

[@j.p.thearmoredchef]

Just got mine about a month ago. Love it. Great product. Very sad to hear the news. Praying for him and his family.

[@dc5723]

Sending prayers and hope to he and his family.

[@dc5723]

Didn't think I'd need one but just ordered and paid for a Quadra combo with the mini-keyboard. Hopefully a GoFund me page will be setup to help wit medical expenses.

[@peterdekeles.]

Very sad indeed. Great guy. Great product. My wife is a radiation nurse in the cancer center. Almost every day is a sad day. Prayers. Thanks Mike for letting us know.

[@giffjim55]

Thanks. Bummer. Praying.

[@Sonicgott]

Cancer sucks. It complicated my late sister’s life and took my grandmother this year. Send my well wishes and regards to the families and friends.

[@Siskiyous6]

I have enjoyed my two Quatro computers a great deal. Praying for healing.

[@JohnSmith-xi2oq]

I just received mine. I hope for a full recovery and hope he comes out of it to keep this company going.

[@WG5Xradio]

I wish Michael well and hope he is pain free . I bought three of the Inovato Quadras back before it included all the software tit does now.

[@kevin_wb0poh]

Prayers from me as well, Mike. I lost a couple of my ham friends, including one of my Elmers, to Pancreatic Cancer.

[@DonDegidio]

Hi Mike, I'm sending prayers his way. The Quadra is a great ham product. Glad your making good use of the one I sent. Just checked out their website and the only accessory I didn't get was the Factory Restore SD Card. Stay safe. 73 WJ3U

[@DO1BTW]

I had the email yesterday I'm from. The Netherlands living directly on the border with Germany in Europe we can't buy the hamclock Michael makes every single hamclock by hand the price is so low he doesn't have much profit. He is too young it's unfair and he is really a great person.

[@JackMalarkey]

Prayers for Michael and his family - drug my feet on ordering one, but now the orders in!

[@RyanMercer]

Not gonna lie, thought that was a PS2 in the thumbnail.

[@norcalstimpy]

Thanks for sharing this, Mike. Just ordered. This is difficult news. Blessings, N6TIL

[@vicmiller7191]

Sorry to hear news like this but thanks Mike for the update. Prayers for comfort for the family. 73 Vic de KE8JWE

[@e7yu]

I pray for them....😢🙏

[@K6WRF]

Love my Inovato HamClock and will continue to run it until it melts or stops working .. Hopefully with aggressive treatment he kicks cancers ass and pushes through. Hopefully someone can pick up the reins on it and keep that amazing product moving forward.

[@LinkEighty8]

Amazing to see how many people have bought one recently just to support him.

[@donzaleski8264]

Praying for Michael as well 🙏🙏

[@Dusty_Ham]

That's so sad. Cancers sucks.

[@barryinn1778]

I feel as everyone else for Michael and his family, sorry to hear this. I wished I had ordered the navoto 6 months ago, I have bought a 24 inch monitor so I could display it, but now I can't get one. So disappointed about this, but I understand the circumstances. The raspberry pi sounds to complicated to make, don't have the skills for that. 73 Michael

[@donwilbanks2226]

Such a kick in the gut. I love my Quadra. Praying for Michael. AE5DW.

[@Blake-W8LB]

So glad I was able to support them when I bought my HAM Clock. I hate to hear this, wishing him and his family all the best.

[@bigchew3149]

Dam That Sux ! Prayers & Condolences !I Hate To See The Quadro disappear as well ! It Is one of The Very Fuw Things in Amateur Radio that about Every one Could Afford and That Works & Looks Awesome to Boot ! It Will Either Be The Geochron Atlas (Such a Rip Off) Or a Raspberry Pi for Any one that Dont already have a Quadro or Don't Get one Very Soon !

[@EricSolomon-op8ti]

I was on the fence, just didn’t want to hear the wife fuss about another piece of Ham Gear- I will take the heat Ordered 2 *** JIC - Hope For Cancer - Cured my wife CURED I Said. She was diagnosed Oct 2019 Don’t trust US Doctors There ARE other options - I have Seen it with my own eyes!! Live with it Today

[@hudefuk]

"JIC"-- what does it stand for?

[@ronwolenski-n8wcr]

Ef Cancer

[@503Nick]

Sad news indeed

[@W8AGW]

I received this same email. Do yourself a favor and buy one while you still can. Very sad news.

[@EricSolomon-op8ti]

I was on the fence. Honestly just didn’t want the wife fissing about another piece of “Ham Gear” I’ll take the heat !! Ordered 2 -

[@rohnkd4hct260]

I have one in my shack and love it!

[@geo9974]

I have to ask. How are you ordering these. Unless you did it before the website said they were totally unavailable now except for accessories.

[@wolfhawg]

That is very nasty stuff. Good luck my friend.

[@kchaney56]

Very sad, just placed an order.

[@jerryKB2GCG]

This sucks big time, best wishes to him and his family

[@Feakre]

It's a real shame that Michael is closing Inovato but remember that HamClock development is still continuing and it's a very simple process to set it up on any Linux computer, especially the Raspberry Pi. This is not the end of HamClock.

[@skeeterk7trd158]

😪 I just bought one about a month ago.

[@JoeSoubie]

It's so sad. The Inovato Quadra is a great machine. I immediately made another order. I'm moving to a new qth and wanted to run a second one with different panes in it. Still need to learn about the other bundled programs in it. Praying for the family. 😢 KG7COA

[@Philip-KA4KOE]

Damn. This really sucks.

[@Philip-KA4KOE]

Lost my best ham friend to Early Onset Alzheimers....know exactly where you're at.

[@aa3konthego]

Sad news!

[@DellFargus]

Damn...

[@wushock92]

Sent them well wishes and an bundle order. TNX for the heads up, Mike. I didn't really need a Ham Clock but I wanted to support them somehow. 73 de WØRHP
