Timtron is the nickname of Tim Smith, WA1HLR. Tim is famous as an AM radio enthusiast, known for a vast knowledge of AM radio engineering. On most evenings, he can be heard operating his ham station on or near the "AM window" of 3885 KHz. He is closely associated with WBCQ, and assisted Allan Weiner in the construction of the station. He also is a frequent WBCQ on-air personality.

In addition to his radio engineering knowledge, Tim is well known for his off color humor and a unique "Down East" accent.

Timtron resides in a compound in Skowhegan, Maine. In the early 1990's, his home was destroyed by a fire. Today, his primary transmitter facilities are in an old school bus parked on his property.
