Just remember that you need at least a general license (which requires

Yes: We get a full CEPT license without morse code nowadays, and as an
electrical engineer it is just the radio rules I have to pass, no

Thank you all for the information - very useful.

How do you access internet as a ham? (low bandwidth) ie where do you
find gateways (or which are the protocols, nets etc to look for)?

The other options are like INMARSAT, Iridium and GSM networks, all of
them quite costly. (from 1 USD/minute upwards)
