I got my ham radio operateur license, F6FKQ, in 1978.
I became active in packet radio and satellites in the 90’s. I had at this time a performing ground station with high gain RHCP V/U antennas and Az El rotator (WISP years). The station was dismantled in 2001 due to repetitive movings for professional reasons. Nevertheless I maintain the contact with the sat activities through the Amsat F and the Sat Electrolab meetings organised in Paris (France)
Presently retired, I am restarting the sat activities with a QO100 receiving station soon transmitting and a modest Satnogs ground station (UHF eggbeater + LNA + LimeSDR Mini + raspberry PI3). Next step will be to become again fully active in sat traffic. Best 73.
