Puerto Rico, La Isla del Encanto (The Enchanted Island) is a beautiful island, with its sandy beaches,
green mountains, rich and colorful history and very friendly people.
The NP3X team is very grateful for the support of our host Moises Vargas KP3P for the use of his QTH
and antenna farm. Special Thanks to Angel Vazquez WP3R for the tour of the Arecibo Observatory.
Thanks also to our QSL manager David Novoa W4DN and to our families for their love and support.
