About me
Thank you for
visiting my home page… My name is Salvatore Rapacciuolo,
IZ8CLM, i was born in 1976 in Torre Annunziata, 20 km
south of Naples and this web site is a collection of my
feeling regarding the radio, the friends and ….
My radioamateur
experience starts in early 80’s watching my father Gaetano (
IK8YDY pic
needed ) speaking
through a strange black box; after few years in December
1989 I had my first DX on CB band with a YL station from
Walles
(
CB pic needed ).
I remember, like
yesterday, the voice, the hand on mic shake and my
scholastic English calling CQ on the air as ROMEO SIERRA (
my name and surname ) looking for someone listening to me
HIHIHIHI.
This was my
starting point for my professional life, in fact in 2003 I
graduated in Telecommunication Engineering at Naples
University “ Federico II “ and I never finish to thank to
my father Gaetano for his infinite passion for electronic
world that has transmitted to me !!!!!!!
Well, about radio,
is my life…. Unlucky now I have no more time like before but
when I’m at home every free minute is spent on frequency (
my girlfriend doesn’t know it HIHIHHI ) calling CQ CQ
IZ8CLM IZ8CLM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
