Hi,
This short message to tell you that I published a short history of amateur
radio, 10 pages illustrated...
http://www.astrosurf.com/lombry/qsl-ham-history.htm
It is mainly dealing with the US ham history replaced in its socioeconomic
context of the time, most of their invention or discoveries having been
re-used by other nations. But to please the non-US hams as well as my ego, I
tried to include some other national events from UK, France or Belgium for
example. These are those "small" event that I tried to find out and that
will be added this study in the future.
It contain of course several links and deal with the space program, a few
words about radioastronomy, and more. Even the first satellite tracking
station from Cordiglia brothers (Torre Bert) is discussed, but in a specific
and separate file due to some alleged claims.
My main radio menu is available at

Hope this help.
Any additional information or addendum is welcome using the form available
on my website.
