Abstract : We report on a study of single W boson production in a data sample collected by the L3 detector at centre-of-mass energies from 130 to 183 GeV. The signal consists of large missing energy final states with a single energetic lepton or two hadronic jets. The measured cross sections at five different centre-of-mass energies are consistent with the Standard Model expectations. The following limits on the anomalous WW$\gamma$ gauge couplings are derived at 95\% CL: $-0.46 \Delta \kappa_\gamma 0.57$ and $-0.86 \lambda_\gamma 0.75$.
