VA2CAT

I got my license in 1992 but I left the hobby few years later. I'm back on the air since 2024.

I live in the forest on top of a 273 meters hill at 90 km north of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Sysop of VA2RIZ (follow this link for more information on Packet).

Je parle Français.
Hablo Español.
