VARA HF BBS PacketI'm a licensed amateur radio operator based in Quebec, Canada. My focus is on emergency communications (EmComm), digital modes, and building tools that help the ham radio community be better prepared when traditional infrastructure fails.
I maintain and develop several open-source projects aimed at making amateur radio more accessible — from a complete Linux OS tailored for EmComm deployments, to an APRS mapping application built for Search & Rescue operations, to running a 24/7 packet radio BBS hub connecting Canada to the TPRFN network.
I believe in the ham radio spirit: share knowledge, build community, help each other. All my projects are open source or freely available.
