Pictures from Azores Islands
My home call is CT3MD but I´ve been living in Horta-Faial between August 2010 to December 2014, with call sign CU7MD. CU is another DXCC entity. CU is Azores and CT3 is Madeira Island.
The Faial Island is one of the 9 islands that compose the volcanic Azores Archipelago and is located at the western end of the Central Azores Group.
The
island has the approach form of an irregular pentagon, with 21 km of
length in the direction East-West and 14 km a maximum width, the one
that corresponds a 172 km ² of area.
The resident population is of 15 000 inhabitants, the majority of which in Horta, capital city of Faial Island.
The
climate is tempered oceanic, with annual average temperatures of air
that oscillate between 13°C in the Winter and 22°C in the Summer, with
frequent gales and a relative moistness of air on average above of 80%.
The
island is served by the Airport of the Horta, with regular aerial
linkings for the remaining islands and the exterior of the archipelago.
The port of the Horta is an important in the maritime of scale of yachts in the passages between American continent and Europe.
The
island local is known by Blue Island, assignment that was popularized
from the description of Raul Brandão in unknown islands.
I need only one contact per band / mode. Please do not insist to make several contacts in the same band and mode. Some operators have come so far as to make three contacts on the same day on the same band. This repeat is about 10% of my QSO´s. Thanks.
