From this morning's Broadcast Dialogue:

David Youell, the senior engineer at Bell Media Radio Vancouver, says he will retire at year’s end. He’s been in the business since 1971, getting his start at Sunwapta Broadcasting’s CFRN Edmonton. In 1974, he joined Stan Davis’s Broadcast Technical Services in Vancouver. In 1995, he moved to CHUM Vancouver as chief engineer. He held that post until 2014 when he decided to step down to the senior position. In 2010, Youell was honoured with the Rohde & Schwarz Excellence in Engineering Award at the Western Association of Broadcast Engineers conference...

Enjoy your retirement, Dave.

Dave took care of us on Ash Street, and he was great.

Retirement may look a bit daunting at this point Dave but after living it for about 6 months you'll stop wondering what to do that day and just do it. You'll be just fine.
Enjoy it, you've earned it!
