The Test Connection, Inc.
About the President

Prior to founding TTCI in 1980, Bill Horner advanced through 20 years in senior ATE and quality management positions at major corporations such as GenRad, Bendix, Westinghouse, Plantronics and Hydronautics.

Mr. Horner holds a B.S. Degree in Engineering, Physics & Computer Science from Loyola College and a diploma from Baltimore Technical Institute in Electronics, Broadcast Engineering and Industrial Electronics. He also proudly served as a member of the United States Army in the special Nike Hercules Fire Control Unit.

As an active participant in the ATE community, Bill Horner regularly presents papers at major ATE seminars.

In his spare time, Bill is an avid boater. He owns a 31' Larson Sports Cruiser. Running a business sometimes makes taking a vacation difficult, but when the opportunity arises, Bill and his wife of 40 years, Marge, can be seen cruising along the Chesapeake Bay, taking trips to Baltimore's beautiful Inner Harbor or mini-vacations to the tranquil shores of Maryland's Ocean City resort.

Capt'n Bill, as known to most of his friends at Baltimore Yacht Club, states "The yacht club is a great place to go and relax. It allows you to communicate with many people in similar situations - since many business owners keep their boats docked there as well. It is also a good place to think and discuss business ideas and get creative solutions to issues that may be going on at The Test Connection." Bill also was an officer at Goose Harbor Yacht Club for 4 years, and Commodore at the Goose in 1999.
