The Wizard of Sao Paulo


It has been about 4 years since Miguel, PY2OHH, has been mentioned in this blog.  That's too long!  Miguel has churned out an impressive series of homebrew rigs, the latest of which he calls the Baita Tche.  Does that name look familiar?  It is a play on words using slang from Southern Brazil.  "Baita"  means big or enormous.  "Tche" means "you."  Together they sound sort of like BITX!  Miguel has been building BITX rigs and rigs (like Baita Tche)  similar to Farhan's rig.  Here is his page on Baita Tche:

Here is his home page with a LONG (almost JF1OZL-ish!) list of projects:

Here's a Photostream of some excellent Brazilian homebrew:
