I wish I could have more space for antennas, and cover more bands! On the left are three QRP radios (QRP Labs QCX) that I've recently built; on the right, the radios and the control box of the rotator for the satellite's' activity.

I've been enjoying ham-radio from Obninsk, in Russia. I had a great hospitality from the Russian ham operators, Alexei RW3XZ and R3XA Ilya.
In the photo below (my QSL), I'm at Obninsk's Club Station with Alexei.
Thanks for contacting me!
QSLs are all on the way via bureau
I confirm every QSO with eQSL, Clublog, LoTW, and my paper QSL

Here is my new one, with which I'll QSL every 2017 / 2018 contact. It's a view of the countryside around my home.

In June 2014 I've been enjoying ham-radio from IS0, Sardinia Is. I've been using a home made fishing-rod antenna, my TS-2000, 100W maximum output.
I thank everybody for being part of my fun during my stay in Sardinia. I'm sending, as usual, my paper QSL via bureau, to confirm every contact. I'm looking forward to catching you again soon from another location!
