Comments:
Four months work, a lot of hardware problems. 10 hours operation only then bed
to sleep... and restaurants to eat, talk about contesting and drink beer. Bad
weather before the contest didn't give us the opportunity to complete the setup
in time. We worked day and night the week before the contest. We are very
sorryfor our foreign operators that flew to Sicily from Russia, Latvia and
Lithuania
for the contest.
We had a bad operator in our team, his name is Mr. Murphy: Two amplifiers and a
radio broken, antennas not working and no time to sleep. Mr. Murphy was able to
destroy a big effort but he wasn't able to make our passion and friendship to
fade out. We are stronger now, after this big bad experience. You will copy
II9P on the bands in the next future. Maybe our first step was too big for our
legs but we are working hard and results will come.
Thanks to our operators:
LY5W - Saulius Zalnerauskas (An old friend and good experienced pile upper);
YL3DW - Oleg Ostrzigallo (The best station engineer ever met!);
YL1ZF - Kaspars Uztics (A racehorse without competitors in this contest);
RA9CO - Dimitry Kryukov (Very good and smart op. He arrived at the contest site
by satellite, met Mr. Murphy... and disappeared in the clouds!);
IT9ACN - Marc Sallemi; IT9AUG - Carmelo Schembri; IT9BUN - Gianni Alfano;
IT9CHU - Vincenzo Bongiovanni; IT9CJC - Marcello Criscione; IT9EQO - Antonello
D'Asta; IT9NJE - Eugenio Gallitto; IT9QQP Pippo Portelli.Special thanks to our
doctor, Mr. Raffaele Intorrella and to our SuperWireless
Technician, Mr. Vincenzo Sidoti.
73 de IT9GSF, Fabio Grisafi (see u in the CW leg!).
