Folks,  
  after 2 years of renting my station to a good number of op's / teams from
different countries, I made my experiences in this "business".
 
  I got to know people from many countries and I thoroughly appreciated
the friendship and the good intentions of all of them.
 
  Unexpected though was the high number of defects and damages after some of
the operations, mostly, I would say, due to unreasonable use of the provided
equipment.
 
  I don't want to bother you with the list of all these defects, but due to my
"normal" business life I am not able to deal with a permanent workload of
repairs.
 
  As a consequence, I will no longer rent out my station on Tobago.  
  I want to express my sincere thanks to those who came here to enjoy radio
and holidays in Tobago and left me with the good feeling of doing the right
thing and with the station intact.
 
  Many thanks also to all of you who supported me with ideas and help in any
possible way, especially my webmaster Ben, DF3CB and my "world-records"
guest Ben, DL6FBL.
 
  For the future I hope to be able to use my own station more than in the past
and hope to hear you all on the bands.
