Best 73's Alfredo / IK6IJF

 

Dear Friends,
yes, it was a great success. Mni tnx to Alfredo for his idea, mni tnx to all participants for their great work.
We still have a great family of ex sparks and I am happy to be a part of this family..
My special thanks includes SK6SAG, G3WNQ (GKZ), IR0IAR, II1ICB (my second home town) TM2FFL, II1ICS, SV1MF (SVA), UA3LDU (UIX), W2WSC, II0IQH, RZ1OK (UZS), EA5FX (EAV), 4X4O, SM3AHM (SAE) M0ROA (GKA) TM2FFO and last not least my friends at LA1LGN.
I have big memories on all this coast radio stations.

The propagations were bad, due to that, I have only two SM stations. I send my best wishes to you all, and I hope, we will meet agn next year, vy 73, Rolf, DL9CM ex DLCM

PS: My station is very small and I am using a GP, 10 m high, but I have 74 QSO's as a single OP in my LOG!

Hi sparks, in my opinion it was a great success.
A close family of former sparks (ship/coast) worked like under old conditions. (QSA/QRK)
For me it was very nice to work with "ICB" again. With this coast station I made my first QSO/TR be bathed in sweat in 1964 after I entered my first ship in Genoa (Ponte Eritrea). It seams I was the only one op who worked (mostly) with my old ships-key made by JUNKER.
Many thanks to the "maker/finder" of MRD.

Hello Sylvester es Gentlemen, yes, according to me it was a great success too. I couldn't believe at it.
Thanks to the main promoteurs and to people who trusted on it. Mainly to you and to peolple like Alfredo that, more than other Italians (maybe), trusted on it. I had only few QSOs for the bad conditions of my equipment, and because of families' QRL. It has been fancyful having heard so many ex colleagues on air. Knowing they were QRV behind the silent SP it was exciting .
Thanks es 73
