Welcome to my personal webpage! It contains articles and stories I've written since 1998 about Fidonet, Linux, programming, radio, and about all kinds of other cool and interesting things I learned.

The latest story I've published is “Project Spite.” You can also see the table of contents.


I am a software engineer, originally from Santiago de Compostela, Spain, and now living near New York City with my family.

I used to publish a weekly newsletter about software engineering, called “Coding Sheet”. It was an English version of my Galician language newsletter, “A Folla”. Arquives are still available in their respective web pages.

I'm the author of a 100% JavaScript RTL-SDR demodulator, Radio Receiver, with source available for web application and the Web RTL-SDR library. I've also recently written a Pascal compiler in Pascal, called Pascual, and I also wrote the smallest useful Twitter client for Android, CheepCheep.

I am an amateur radio enthusiast with the callsigns AE2IT (USA) and EA1ITI (Spain). I formerly held US callsign KK6RKA. My main interests are shortwave (20 and 40m mainly), software-defined radio (SDR), and exchanging QSL cards.

You can email me to my name at my surname dot org.
