I'm a licensed amateur radio operator in Bangalore, Karnataka, holding a Restricted grade licence issued by the Wireless Planning & Coordination Wing (WPC), Department of Telecommunications, Government of India.
My interests are VHF, UHF and DMR, and I'm especially enthusiastic about digital voice and the way it connects operators around the world. I enjoy nets, experimenting with equipment and software, and sharing what I learn with fellow hams.
I wanted digital voice to feel as good on an iPhone as everything else does. That's how DroidStar DMR for iOS happened, and why it's free: it's my way of giving back to the hobby.
Handhelds on VHF and UHF for local nets, and digital voice networks for the rest of the world, all reachable from an iPhone with DroidStar. Call VU3LVO.
