Need a web page for your visit? Contact my webmaster and we'll give you an area for FREE*!
Send us your details (and picture) a fortnight in advance and we'll put your DXpedition on hamcall.net, QRZ.com and DX425 too.

When you leave the arrivals area at the airport, turn right** [still inside], walk past the greeting area [SMILE] and exit the side automatic door to meet Ed. KEEP SMILING! Ed can no longer sit and wait for you at the airport. Look to your left for a payphone (public telephone box). It takes cash only and a call to Ed is 50c (2 quarters). It takes US and local coins but not Canadian.
When Ed arrives (normally a few minutes) you'll be looking for a WHITE Mitsubishi minivan (Licence No. VP9GE(!)).

If you do not see the minivan telephone 293-2525 for transport (146.82MHz sometimes works also).
**[If you go straight on, you will walk up to the line of waiting taxi drivers and miss Ed. Some taxi drivers do not know where Tarrafal Drive is].

*For radio amateurs only. Your area will be on vp9ge.com/<your home callsign>. Maximum 10MB. Access to your own area by FTP is available.
