About Sylvain Faust
VE2FET
First licensed as a Canadian Amateur Radio
Operator on July 13, 1977, at the age of 12, the youngest in Canada to
successfully pass the complete exams including morse code at 10 words
per minute, drawing schematics of a radio transmitter, receiver, etc,
laws regarding international radio communications and electronics basics,
Sylvain has been operating
under the same 'callsign' ever since. It was Lionel VE2DTV, friend of the family, who introduced Sylvain
to the Amateur Radio 7 months earlier.
VE2FET was living in Montreal at the
time and quickly became a member of the local club VE2UMS. Among his
other interests, the one for computers emerged in 1979. Under the
early guidance of Pierre, VE2BSI (now VE2ICI), he developed a fascination
for programming, by first toying with microprocessor machine code and soon
enough, 6502 assembler using a KIM.
Within a few short years, Sylvain
became a world-level specialist in transactional database design and the
fine art of transaction performance tuning. He's the creator of the
product SQL-Programmer(r) (1992) among others and founder of Sylvain Faust
Inc. (1988) at the age of 23 and a few days. (SQL-Programmer(r), SQL-Optimizer,
SQL-Sombrero are now owned by BMC Software http://www.bmc.com since
November 2000).
Sylvain was born in February 1965 in
St-Hyacinthe, province of Quebec. He later moved to Montreal at the
age of 8. He has been living in the Ottawa-Gatineau area (west
of Montreal) and the Austin, Texas region between 1986 and 2007.
Among his current "Amateur Radio"
equipment, his shelves support top of the line ICOM IC-7800, IC-7000,
