Operator: Roland Cornuel

The first use of "eF8MM" was in 1925 by M. GORDON MALLET ( and his wife) with the unlicenced call "eF8MM".

Morel Marcel received the 1st official license after WWII in 1948 as FF8AA in AOF (Afrique Occidentale Française).
After a few month back in France, then a return to Dakar, Marcel used FF8MM (unlicensed?)
