CT1EAT's new Shack

This is my new station.

During more than a decade I imagined the station I would like to have, and resign to operate the one I had.
Now, after many years, the dream become true.
On August 2001 I moved to a new house. Although it's not perfect, it's the most close I could aford :o)
Since then, step by step, with the help of good friends, CT1EAT's new radio station has been built.
This page is a tribute to all who helped me on this project, specially to:

António Faustino
Alexandre, CT1GVN
Zé Eduardo, CT2GQN
João, CT1EPC
Quim, CT2GWY
Nelsom, CT2GWZ
Rui, CT1EIF

To all my sincere Thanks.
