Topband: 4U1ITU

[Steve]

I operated from ITU many times in the 1980’s. The sloping wire from the building to the ground had just been installed by Paco EA(?) who along with Ted Robinson ran the club station. I traveled throughout Europe for my company usually planning air departure from Brussels to Geneva. I’d operate all weekend and departed on Sunday evening by train to my next appointment on Monday in Zurich. I ran into George K8GG a few times. His wife’s family lived in Lausanne, about 40 km from Geneva. I spent a lot of time on 160 at Geneva sunrise and worked many stateside on top band. Many mentioned that it was an ATNO on 160. 
Very nice setup in those years. Access to the club station was easy if you joined the 4U1ITU club. Don’t know about now.
