[SFDXA] Visiting ham from Cuba CO6CBF

[Bill Dzurilla]

Please see below, I met Hector on the air a couple of years ago when he was an 18 year old student who successfully built his own ham radios and made lots of satellite contacts from different grid squares in Cuba.  He is a very nice young man.  He will be in the south Florida area next week.  If anyone would like to meet him or donate any equipment, let me know.  Not sure yet how long he will be staying in our area.

73, Bill NZ5N
