Airbnb – Suite for rental!

Our host, Marenga, PU0FDN has just made some improvements on his guest suite and now (since February, 2019) has registered it on Airbnb.com and is available for rental for now and on.

So, now, if you plan to visit Fernando de Noronha Island, and would like to rest for some days in a simple but very friendly and peacefull place, you should consider visit his Airbnb site on this link.

Below there are some photos from this place. And here you can check his location on the island in Google Maps.

We have just got from the printer a bunch of 2,000 QSL cards for PY0F activities. After searching between some QSL printing services available on the internet, we stoped by a brazilian digital printing company with a very good quality / price. (30 USD for 1,000 cards – 4+1 colors – no shipping included).

The logs for PY0F activities during this last year were already uploaded to Clublog and may be requested via Clublog OQRS or Direct to PY7RP.
