Hi Gang
Over the weekend at Dayton, PY5EG advised unofficially that he had secured an 
agreement to lodge WRTC attendees at a place called the Costao do Santinho 
which is located on the NE tip of Santa Catarina Island, a short drive from the 
Capital city of SC province which is Florianopolis.
I have personally visited this site with PP5JR (ZX5J) and I can tell you if 
the "unofficial word" becomes reality, WRTC attendees are going to be in for a 
real treat!  This is a wonderful facility, well-suited to house not only WRTC 
competitors/judges but for WRTC visitors as well.  It is a place the whole 
family will enjoy staying at.
I've enclosed a hotlink to a promotional website for this venue if anyone 
wants to take a look.
I am told that since WRTC 2006 will occur in what is considered the 
"off-season" for this resort complex, that lodging rates will be very 
attractive - 
downright reasonable in fact -with a wonderful restaurant complex on site at 
which 
to enjoy native local cuisine.
Personally, I am hoping that the preliminary word I got over the weekend 
becomes reality - as folks are going to be in for a real treat if Oms actually 
has 
landed this place.
It doesn't get any better than this.....
