already to finish the day, we went from the Convention Center at the Astronomical Observatory Architect Pablo Lonnie Pacheco Railey, on the outskirts of the city, where we were we would have to do the "night DXers" (listening the radio, do dx's), but before that, the group of amateur astronomers and gave us a display of rocket launch base water and air pressure. The team Our friend Paul took the cheers of the public for being the most high earned.



Following this, we set out to build our antennas and radios to start tuning the shortwave, but unfortunately the weather was in our favor, a thunderstorm threatened to promptly and it started raining, but it was only pure noise, then walked away but continued electrical disturbance and prevented us from listening to the radio, only a few moments ...


And a bad time, we had a time of fellowship with the community Astronomers and amateurs, with whom we share a delicious dinner.


Another hobby came to light:

Day 2: Statement of Ludo Maes (TDP)

From Belgium, we had the pleasant privilege of having the assistance and participation of Mr. Ludo Maes, who explained how the company start TDP "Transmitter Documentation Project." Told us that his initial work was to gather all information about transmitters and antennas on shortwave radio, and thus produced a written work, a book, the Transmitter Documentation Project, "which was a success. All material is now available online at their website. After this work Some interested in broadcasting was called for which he gave them advice and equipment necessary to mount it, so TDP was launched as a company that provides not only advice but provides them with the right equipment to the applicant's need . Something very interesting, well your company is planning to venture into the Latin area, providing services and making them see the benefits commercial broadcasters short wave and now even more with digital methods such as DRM.
