Dear all,

thank you for visiting my profile.

I was born on 1981 and I'm licensed since 2012

I'm a member of:

A.R.I. - Radioclub of Magenta IQ2MG www.arimagenta.it

GRT #1075 www.telegrafia.it

 

I live in a small town called Gravellona Lomellina about 40km far from Milan in the north-west of Italy

My hobbies are music, photography, travels and obviously ham radio!!

 

99% of my QSOs are made with only 5W QRP and End Fed Antenna.

 

On october 2012 I started to learn CW by myself and, after a month, I'm trying to make QSOs, so, if you will hear my call on air, please QRS and sorry for my mistakes and misunderstanding!

QSL CARD:

If you hear me on the air /QRP please put also this one on your QSL card, it's very important for me!

SWLs are Welcome!

 

DIRECT QSL POLICY:

Due to new italian postal fees since January 2013, I have to ask you a little help for direct QSL

If you need a direct QSL card please send a SAE with:

- FROM ITALY: 1$ or 1 italian stamp

- FROM EUROPE: 2$

- FROM REST OF THE WORLD: 3$

 

Please NO IRC or Green stamps

 

Please take note that all QSL cards received with insufficient postage return will be answered via BUREAU

 

Thank you for understanding.
