I'm the Earth inhabitant from the year 1973. My biggest hobby nowadays is dance - rather - american tap dancing - Clogging. I have been the coach of young dancers at dance group Caramelka since year 2004. Caramelka's mainstream is Clogging, next are Western dance show, Cancan, Irish tap and other kindred dances.     I was member of Caramella dance group from year 2003 to 2011.
	My second biggest hoby is hamradio - amateur radio. I have made my first touch with electronics at the middle of the basic school. And in the late years of basic school i discovered hamradio and have fallen in love with it. I have made my first hamradio steps at Sedlcany club station OK1KQH and I'm still member of this station. I acquired youth callsign OL1VRN when I was 15 years old. And my adult callsign (from my 18 years) have been OK1VCF. You can "hear" my callsign mainly on 144.800, APRS frequency, where my 3 weatherstations are brodcasting. I take care of the APRS DIGI/IGATE OK1KYU. Sometimes I attend some 144 or 432 band contests, and occasionally I work on short waves too.     During years 2003 to 2005 I have developed some simple APRS hamradio modules, based on (my favourite) PIC microcontrollers from Microchip:
	UniTrack - sends GPS or WX data to the APRS network WX station - weatherstation, measures temperature, humidity, presure WX LCD - LCD display module for weatherstation above NMEA a WX LCD - software for LCD module above, displaying of NMEA GPS data added GPS,SMT,AX.25,WX LCD - LCD module for weatherstation, GPS, SMT temperature sensor and displays APRS frames from TRX audio OUT Pic3Com - Ethernet module (3c509 + PIC 16F877), supports http, aprsd telnet protocol, for transmit/receive APRS frames via internet stream and displays values from the weatherstation on a web page
