We are currently in Cuenca and are finding things pretty much as we thought with a few exceptions.
What I want to know is, does anyone know about Ham Radio in Ecuador? I a currently a licensed ham in the U.S. and wonder how I can put my hobby to use here. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.

Are you there for a long stay or gone already? If there, this is probably a good place to start:

The ARRL has more specific info, but I have found that the ARRL is not very good at keeping up with changing reality, but it's always a good starting point:

Good luck!

Considering moving to Ecuador when I retire in a couple of years.
I am a Ham Radio Operator, but haven't been too active lately, but plan on getting back into the hobby after I retire. I was wondering about using my Advanced Class priveleges down in Ecuador. Any hams out there can you help me with any special rules they have in that country? Thanks. We will be in touch.

This ARRL blurb from a radio club in Ecuador is still the latest info: http://www.arrl.org/select-countries-e-h
If you aren't adept at handling pile-ups already, start practicing now. You will be the DX and everyone is going to want to talk to you, and all at the same time! 
I recommend learning N1MM Logger.
