Belize 2005 Photos
The V31TP multi-op single-transmitter contest DXpedition operated from the
Cahal Pech Resort in San Ignacio, Belize. It is located at the top
of a steep hill overlooking the city and with a clear view to the north -
perfect for working the US and Canada. We set up our antennas around
the pool deck of the house next door, which is owned by Daniel, the owner
of the resort and the cousin of John, WCØW.

Here are views from the deck where we set up our antennas, looking toward
the west.
Here's a view to the northeast overlooking the downtown part of San Ignacio.
Notice the clear shot to the US:
We stayed in cabañas adjacent to the owner's property where we set
up the antennas. You can see the deck railing to the right of the cabañas.
Here are some photos of us setting up the antennas before the contest:
