The pages of this site were made picking information from various sources, "word of mouth" and hamradio daily traffic included.

Anyhow, I do not exclude the existence of some unintended errors. As well, the articles are entirely written and translated in English by myself, and I'm NOT a native English spoker.  As a result, some misspellings, unclear, dizzy, improper use of words or phrases, might have the undesired result of distorting the original information.
