French, born in 1948, interested by electronic when I was very young, I became an Ham Radio when I was 16 (F1OM) VHF/UHF and later with full license (F6DNH).
I start spending time with logic IC (DTL !) around 1970 and built a lot of electronic devices.
Graduated Engineer later in IT systems, I worked first in the Grenoble University, hosting a big mainframe (360/67) running OS/MVT and CP/CMS. It was the only period I had to develop systems code and add-on.

After a few years I went to a service company providing services to accountants and became less technician and more manager.
Just, as a hobby, building my first micro computer running CP/M…

Last, I move to one of the company merged with other in order build the Atos Group, having high level management either in Europe or in Asia.

I’m retired since 2006 and always interested in micro electronic and coding. I’ve now dismounted antennas and associated devices, having no more activity in ham radio.

I focus on GNSS…
