For the 70cm equipment, I participated in VHF/UHF contests with multioperator groups.

This is a genuine question! I know I am genuinely uninteresting because I don’t know why I would do this if there wasn’t already a built-in audience. This seems adjacent to shouting into the void if one doesn’t already know that there are listeners/receivers. Why does anyone do this at all?
To be honest, I've pretty much phased out on conventional ham radio. The last time I was out in the field was 2010. These days all my ham radio activity is for SDR (Software Defined Radio) development testing. Here's my Github.
And here's a demo video of my open source ATSC 3.0 transmitter.
Wasn’t yet following you on Twitter, but was already subbed on YT. I see you, but I don’t recognize you. I will review my history to appreciate further your contribution(s) to my present state.
I am going to DEF CON. I hope to see you there, but if not this year, perhaps sometime soon irl or online.
To circle back, how did this happen:
> They found out that I had an Oscar 10/13 satellite station
Specifically, how did they know
that I had an Oscar 10/13 satellite station
?
Are there people fox hunting recreationally, all the time?

It's an organized event, just like Field Day. The most popular one is in June, since sporadic-E propagation on 50 MHz is available.
