About the author

Pascal Rondane’s hobby has been electronics since he was a teenager, and he has owned every issue of Elektor since the beginning of the French edition in 1978. He trained as an electronics technician and worked for 20 years in a company that maintained Motorola radio equipment, and repaired electronic boards for IBM France. He then worked for 22 years in after-sales service and test bench design in a major French group manufacturing road signs. Since retiring, he has had more time for his favorite hobby and for participating in the activities of the <i>Association du Centre Historique de la Diffusion Radiophonique (ACHDR)</i>, dedicated to the safeguarding of the French audiovisual heritage.
