The ham radio day got off to a good start at N2CQR yesterday. 40 meters was open in the morning and PV8AL was calling CQ. Helio had a strong signal, due in large part to his 3 element 40 meter yagi. Helio lives on a farm outside Boa Vista, Brazil. As he spoke, I could clearly hear the roosters crowing in the Amazonian dawn. Very cool. It brought me back to mornings in the Dominican Republic, and in Central America. It also reminded me of one of my first DSB contacts from the Azores -- I could hear the parakeets of Amadeu CT2HGL in Coimbra, Continental Portugal. Obrigado Helio! Obrigado Amadeu!
