Thirty years have passed since 1A made its way onto the DXCC list. And an
activation by an International team looks to celebrate the uniqueness of
this event. So, from the 1st to the 4th July, we will listen them on the air
as 1A0C from Santa Maria del Priorato, home of theSovereign Military Order
of Malta.
The callsign that will be used belongs to the "The Order of Malta's Italian
Relief Corps (CISOM)", an organization specialized in bringing assistance
and relief during emergencies. This underscores the dual value of this
activation. On the one hand, there's the fun side ham radio, giving a not so
easy "new one" to as many stations as possible (especially from the US and
Japan).
On the other hand, however, there's the noble goal, as often seen in ham
radio, where a spirit of cooperation and mutual aid are shared by operators
all over the world. The team's aim, in fact, is to raise funds - thanks to
donations and contributions from QSL requests - in order to buy radio
equipment which The Order of Malta's Italian Relief Corps volunteers will be
able to use in case of emergencies.
The operators list includes: 1A0X, 1A0Z, EA2RY, EA5RM, EA7AJR, EA7KW, F5CWU,
IN3ZNR, IT9YVO, IZ8IYX, PB2T, SP3DOI and KH6CG as a pilot for North America
and Pacific.
They will be active on HF+6m and the QSLs for contacts with 1A0C can be
requested via Francesco Cozzi <http://www.qrz.com/db/1A0Z> , 1A0Z
<http://www.qrz.com/db/1A0Z> .

A website will be online soon, stay tuned!
