Biography Info:

I was born in 1959 in a village near my actual QTH. Since the mid of the '70 when I began to take interest in ham radio, I felt that my main goal was DX hunting in HF. I got the Italian licence in 1981 and some years ago the US Extra class call K2CHZ. In 1991 I married Cristiana (IW2NVI/KC0QXT) who shares with me this great passion, now we live in the centre of Crema, a nice, old and small town 30 Km from Milano, where we work at Linate airport. In 2006 I got #1 DXCC Honor Roll.

Untill today (August 6th 2008) my score is:

338 DXCC (340 total) entities confirmed and credited on Phone ( http://www.ari.it/hf/diplomi/dxcc/classifiche/index.php?topic=Phone )

104 DXCC entities worked on 160 m.

103 DXCC entities worked on 6 m.

317 DXCC entities worked on RTTY

2601 DXCC entities worked for Challenge and 1985 confirmed

805 IOTA worked and 542 confimed

From March 2006 I am ARI APRS Manager and from May 2007 ARRL Volunteer Examiner.
