Biography

Born in 1966, I discovered radio with CB and shortwave in the 80s.

Amateur radio since 1993, I owe a lot to Joël (F5NQM) and I have fond memories of those first years in contact with friends of the F6KWP radioclub(ARAS 54). I was then living near Verdun (55).

Later, my job took me to Germany where I was lucky to be able to use the DA1HA callsign from 1994 to 2000 and I had the sadness to close the story of REF FFA by activating DA2REF for its last transmissions.

The 2000s and a move to Paris were synonymous with dead calm when it came to radio, only listening to short waves reminded me that I was an amateur.

Later, I bought my boat, a British narrowboat and I was able to install a small HF station onboard.

Very recently, after several decades of SSB, RTTY and other PSK, I started using CW. And in this context, I owe a lot to the admin and participants of the Slow Morse Club. Thank you for your help in this new activity. Without you, the start-up would have been much longer and more laborious :)
