Dear President / Board of Directors,

A.R.I. Fidenza Radio Club (A.R.I. Italian Amateur Radio Association, 
IARU affiliated), organizes the eleventh edition of a technical – 
cultural event, hold at the seat of the *Guglielmo Marconi 
Foundation* (Villa Griffone, *Marconi's birthplace * – Pontecchio 
Marconi , Bologna – Italy) on *Saturday, June 7 and Sunday, June 8.th 
<http://8.th>, 2025.*

Aim of this event is to highlight at an international level the 
*historical value and meaning of the Yacht “Elettra”*, the moving 
laboratory of the great Italian scientist, onboard of which a number of 
very important experiments on the radiocommunications were conducted.

Over the whole weekend, the radioamateurs of the A.R.I. Fidenza group 
*will operate a radio station located close to the relict keel of the 
yacht “Elettra”*, kept at the Museum, and will ideally give new life to 
its “voice", allowing the radioamateurs overall in the world to get in 
contact with it.

The radio contacts will be operated using the *SPECIAL MARCONIAN STATION 
CALLSIGN   I Y 4 R X O

We believe that is mainly interest all Ham Radio operators, so *please
