Caro(s) amigo SÃ©rgio e restantes colegas,

Da parte que me toca, sÃ³ posso dizer que foi com muito prazer que aceitei o
amÃ¡vel convite da ARRLX, que desde jÃ¡ muito agradeÃ§o, para poder desfrutar
desta bela iniciativa.

Agradecer tambÃ©m Ã  forma como fui recebido e integrado nesta excelente
equipa, pelo Viegas - CT2IXQ e por ti, aos Ã³ptimos repastos, hi hi.

Por fim um agradecimento ao Francisco - CR7AJM, por se ter lembrado da
minha pessoa para o convite e para todos os colegas, os que resolveram
saÃrem do conforto do teclado do computador para estarem nos farÃ³is a
colocarem Portugal neste "mapa" e aos colegas que no conforto do seu QTH
nÃ£o deixaram de dizer: Presente!

Venham mais!

Bem haja a todos, 73 de Pedro - CT7AGN
