Despues de XR0ZR...

Bueno, después de unas semanas de silencio motivadas por mi participación en la expedición a la isla de Juan Fernandez XR0ZR, volveré poco a poco a publicar noticias sobre los 6 metros en el blog.

Pronto publicaré un reportaje completo que seguro os gustará. De momento os dejo cuatro números de lo trabajado en 50 MHz y algunas fotos...
