Hi all, D64K is over and i'm back home again after enjoying a great expedition.

First I want to thank Salvador, C31CT / EA3QS because he proposed me to go. Second i want to thank Fabrizio, IW3SQY, as he trust in me and 6 meters band possibilities. Third my thanks go to my father, Josep Ma., EA3LL, being my teacher all these years of radio and his great work preparing the elevation hardware for 6 meters antenna, it worked very fine.
