Not One, But Two Brazilians!

[banjoplayinnerd]

There are days when I think I'm just shouting into the ether, calling CQ over and over and getting no replies even though I know people are hearing me. And then there are days when I make a few contacts but they're all in California. Nothing wrong with California, mind you, but working stations from a single area is like eating steak every night for dinner. As much as you might like steak, it's nice to have a pork chop or some chicken or macaroni and cheese once in a while.

And then there's tonight.

Tonight I worked not one, but two stations in Brazil, the first in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in the far southern part of the country, and the other near São Paulo. These are my first contacts in South America in a very long time. So I'm feeling pretty good and hoping that if I can pull in a signal from Porto Alegre, Uruguay and Argentina can't be far behind.

And now it's bedtime.
