Awesome, wonderful, great guy.. You will be missed. RIP and condolences to fellow family and friends. SK 🎙Ira
Beautiful tribute Josh. Well done! He was such a wonderful blessing to the hobby and all mankind. 73 Bob. Hope to work you on the other side.❤
Such a huge part of the community, he will be severely missed.
I can think of few who left such a legacy behind in this world and in the hobbies he loved. May his memory continue to warm the hearts of all who knew or knew of him. Godspeed Dr. Heil, 73’s until we meet again!
This one really hurts. He was so genuine. One time recently I asked when Joe Walsh was on the air. He gave me frequencies and day/times. He did not have to do that, but that is the kind of man Dr. Heil was.
RIP Bob, you will be missed.
The great thing about our shared hobby of radio is knowing that our transmissions will propagate for a long time in the universe. Bob’s contribution will make us sound better and his own TX will shine brighter than most of us.
Beautiful tribute. Bob's organ music seals the video.
RIP, Bob……..glad I was able to meet you at Hara Arena years ago ! You made an indelible impression on so many !
A life well-lived. Rest in Peace Bob.
Lovely tribute, rest in peace Bob.
Great tribute. Rest in Peace Bob.
Fantastic tribute, Dr. Bob Heil will be SORELY missed!😢
Such sad news. When I first got into amateur radio, Bob was still a regular fixture on Ham Nation. I've missed him being on the show. RIP bob. We'll remember his contributions every time someone mentions they're using a HEIL microphone.
RIP Bob. 73s M7GTX 😢
Excellent tribute to a legend of a man! Well done Josh!
He will be missed !! God bless Bob
Thanks for this remembrance of Bob Heil. He will be missed and long remembered for his contributions to ham radio and music. I will remember his enthusiasm and his ability to put together and support the Ham Nation team and to inform and support our hobby. Thanks, Bob and RIP.
Used to hear him on low band AM rag chewing fairly often. A real gentleman for sure and very bright. RIP Bob
Bob Heil was a great man of Amateur Radio !! He will be the greatest most loved Icon of Ham Radio !!
NN1Q here... Bob was a great pillar in this community and I'm so sad his key is silent now. Somehow, I know, listening to those 80M crashes of static on warm summer nights, his voice is still ringing out there...somewhere. 73 sir.
He was a very smart guy and very down to earth...
Godspeed Bob! Thank you for everything you did for this community. You will be greatly missed. Rest in peace.
Great Tribute. Thanks Josh !! ( KF0AMJ )

Vale Bob K9EID. Rock n Roll legend, Ham Radio titan. Thanks for the tribute.
This is a very nice tribute to the man. It speaks for itself. Perfect.
Nice tribute to Bob Thankyou Josh
One of my first high profile hams I discovered when I first got my license.
I will always cherish the QSO with him at K0OJ SK in 2016 RIP DR Heil
Thanks Josh for this. 'nuff said. K9NYX
What a wonderful fellow. RIP Bob.
I can't believe this! I just saw him at winterfest here in St Louis.
The most famous contact I have in my logbook, Bob Heil answered my CQ some years back. I almost fell off my chair. I hadn’t realized he passed. Very sorry to hear the news.
Thought I’d mention that I was wearing his earphones at the time too. Mentioned that to him and he was pleased.
Bob was a great man and mentor! Always a very friendly voice, and was always helpful to many people.
Thank you Bob and may you Rest In Peace!
Bob's legacy will live on for a very long time. What a legend. 73 OM, we'll miss ya.
As a musician, I already loved Heil before getting into ham radio. Sad to hear. Thank you for everything, your memory will be fondly held by us all.
Josh tnx so much for this Tribute Video to Bob Heil. May he RIP de DK5ONV, Your Friend Günter 🛡🎗🍀♥
Bob will be missed. I'm sad today.
God bless Bob...see you on the other side!
Bought a TS-480SAT of his several years ago...
Wish I still had it!
Very nice. He changed our hobby for the better and changed rock and roll. He lived a full life. He will be missed.
A sad day. I met Bob briefly at Dayton some years back. He was busy, but not to busy to take a few minutes talking about ham radio. He and I were first licensed the same year.
Rest easy Dr. Bob. Thank you for so many contributions to Live Music and Ham Radio. So very sad.
Oh no, this cannot be so. I met Bob and Joe at a Collins Radio Colllectors Association dinner at Dayton, some years ago. Wonderful man. Thank you for the tribute, Josh. N9RJX
We are sure gonna miss him Josh. A true pioneer of our hobby. I have a lot of his products. ❤❤
Thank you for this wonderful tribute to a great man who was everyone’s Elmer. RIP Dr Bob and 73
What a loss. I had the privilege of meeting the man a few times. What a genuine person. He will be greatly missed by so many.
God bless Bob. You will be missed and remembered.
Rest in Peace fine sir! A legend beyond word. May the angels guide you home.
Rip Robert G Heil, you will be missed
Great video. I had the privilege of hearing Bob play the organ in Visalia at the DX Convention a few years ago. I will always remember that. 73 de KF6LU
May he now tune in from heaven! Godspeed Sir!
Bob, I'm so glad I got to meet you at dayton hamvention 2019 for the first time. Thank you for taking the time to take a photo with me. You were very polite and alive with sound. Thank you for everything you have done for the hobby. DE N8QDV

Verry sorry to hear about Bob Heil will be sorely missed RIP Bob de G6JMX
Such a great ambassador and mentor for amateur radio! And just all around nice guy!
Thanks for sharing this. Bob Heil and ham nation reinvigorated my love for ham radio. He will be missed.
He did so much for ham radio and rock and roll.
Very nice tribute to Bob. I got to say hello and have a few words with him a Dayton a couple of years ago, and I felt like I knew him. May he rest in peace.
Bob was great he did a nice zoom presentation for our ham club this was a nice tribute I think.
Great Tribute. Bob will be missed
Thanks. An incredibly sad day.
God bless him and his key will be missed. RIP Bob
....kind of sad to see him go.
I kind of just tuned out of watching hamnation years ago, because of the annoying ad breaks for "ping" or whichever.
....kind of feeling nostalgic now, especially because sponsorblock and such, are kind of a saving grace these days.
Anyway; rest in peace bob, you'll be missed.
Sad news. Condolences to the family.
Nicely done, Josh.
Josh, Thanks, Jay, KB0TS
Really nice tribute!
Awe man, Bob's a true legend!
I met him in Utah some years ago. Knowledgeable, passionate, friendly.
Just found out about this, so sad to find that this great inventor and a great Ham is not with us. What else can one say that hasn't been said.🥺😢
May your rest in peace I’ve only seen a couple videos with him in it and live streams, but he seemed to be a great individual. I can only hope this someday on a set of Heil headphones.
RIP Bob. You had 10 years on me in both age and when licensed.
Great tribute Josh. Thank you.
Beautifully done.
Good job with the compilation.

Fantastic video Josh! I had the honor to chat with Bob on the radio in 2022 for about 20-30 min! He was so kind & caring! He will truly be missed!!!
Another legend gone.😢
So sad. What a big loss
I am building a Yagi antenna would it effect the performance if I mount it on a metal pole? WQ9V
When did Bob pass away, this is the first of me hearing about his passing? 😢
It was announced this morning on the Heil company Facebook page.
RIP Bob
