The
Preluna Tower Hotel is the highest building at the seashore. The propagation from the 12th floor is
extraordinaire. Please ask the hotel manager for the room 1208 . From this room I have run successfully the
CQWW SSB contest, and I have returned there also 2001 The hotel manager is Mr.
Julian Mompalao de Piro and is very favorable to the radio amateur operation.

Comments->We operated 9H3WW during CQWWDX CW from there. Nice apartment with
space for 4-5 people. Shops and Restaurants in near village. On top of the
house there is about 10x20m space for antennas. Very helpful owner 9H5JO, he
helped with the licenses and organized pick-up at the airport.
Ham Friendly Hotel: Victora Hotel
Reported by Karl, OE3JAG who visited on 05/05
Contact Info: http://www.victoriahotel.com
Due to weight restrictions, I selected to use a QRP Transceiver, dipole
antenna, and RG174 coax. Thus I came on a total weight of 12 kilograms with
suitcase and Laptop. In order to have any chance, I selected CW and PSK as mode
of operation.
One week before I arrived, I contacted the hotel, and they reserved a
room for me on the highest floor. Fortunately this hotel is the tallest
building in this region. My on-line log can be found on my homepage www.oe3jag.com under 9H3JAG.
