Ricevo oggi e rilancio specialmente per Andrea, magari si conoscono.
Dear Mr. Bornancini,

The reason for writing to you is that I managed
for the first time to receive your HF Beacon
here in Geneva(my location is about 800 m from the Geneva Airport) and I
thought that may be some interesting news to you.

I can give the following items about my receiving your
Station:

D a t e:                June  24, 2009
T i m e:                16.46 - 16.52 UTC
F r e q u e n c y:      28321.7 kHz
S i g n a l  strength:  fair and clear
RST 579

I understood your CW message as follows:
"I3GNQ = B JN55VJ R3W QRSS3". There was a message at about 18.46 and every 2
minutes thereafter.
Between the messages there were dashes and an intervals.
I am using a DSP (NRD-545) receiver with an active
(exterior) antenna in the garden.

Concluding once again let me express my pleasure
because of having been able to receive your Station
here in Switzerland and I kindly ask you to confirm
that my report is correct and that it really was your
HF Beacon I3GNQ from Tencarola I had the
pleasure to listen to. 

I wonder about power and antenna used?

Did you already receive any reports from Geneva or
Switzerland?

(No problem for me to send SAE and return postage for the QSL card, just let me
know).

Looking forward to your reply I remain

Vy 73 from Switzerland,
