The 7 MHz have excellent local daylight, opening with the Antipodes to sunrise and sunset and excellent DX conditions overnight, which added to the authorization held by novices to operate it were decisive in their choice.

The development of the project also includes other aspects such as the construction of platelets and / or groups to assemble and also the provision of these sets of technical schools that participate in the program The Way Radio a safe and secure. Nevertheless, we still have to retrace a path laborious, which as always, try to walk slowly but surely to arrive at a successful conclusion and with the satisfaction of all.
