Biography

I got my licence in 1988. After a couple of years of activity I went to study at Bologna University and I left the hobby idle for several decades.. I started again to play with radios around 2020 with also the intention to recover the knowledge of Morse coed I learnt when I was 17 y.o. and to use it on air ( I was fascinated with Morse but I just pass the Morse code test at the time but I was simply scared and not proficiency enough..)To my big surprise in 2019 when I tried again I found out I still remembered it and I was able to receive and transmit almost all the alphabet and some punctuation... So I started to exercise and here I am. I managed to work some DX stations in CW as soon as I tried all with my great satisfaction!
