My first license (with call IW0FLM) dates back to 1996. I prefer the qso DX activity both in phonics and digital mode, I dedicate myself in particular to the activity via Satellite, and FT8 / MSK144 on 6 meters band
I have been able to experiment for some years the satellite activity at the time of the Radio Sputnik RS10-11-12-13-15 satellites and the Oscar 10-13 / FO20.I have always followed with passion and interest the qso of the astronauts with the earth, since the time of the mythical MIR station, and of the then commander Valery Korzun with whom I had the honor and pleasure to make different qso.
