bonjour jan,
it took some searching just now, but i located your stamp in the 2007 scott catalog. it is sc. #635 valued at $ .90 mint, .40 used u.s. dollars. there is no illustration that accompanies the stamp, but the overprint is on cameroun #617 radar station, 100 fr. as you have described. thanks for my mental exercise today.
