[TVARC] 1A0C QTH

[K2PS Pete Stafford]

It wasn't easy, but after diligent research I've figured out that, as
Dennis, N0SMX, suggested, 1A0C is actually in Rome, Italy.  Yes, I know, the
name of the "country" is The Sovereign Military Order of Malta.  The 1A0C
website (http://www.1a0c.com/) doesn't give us the QTH, but QRZ.com does
show an address of 

 

The Order of Malta's Italian Relief Corps CISOM
Amateur Radio Station
Roma
SMO Malta

 

So, Roma (Rome, Italy)? Or Malta?  I did find a Czech website
(http://www.ok1rr.com/index.php/13-news/52-1a0c-sovereign-military-order-of-
malta) from 2012 that stated they were on the air from "Santa Maria del
Priorato, home of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta."  Why doesn't
anyone just tell us where they are!?  Well, Googling Santa Maria del
Priorato puts us squarely in the city of Rome, right by the Tiber river.
And there's a photo of the building which matches a photo on the 1A0C
website.
