		<description><![CDATA[Fact: last Saturday I had the chance, with Giorgio IZ4AKS, to visit and operate, for a couple hours, from 4U1ITU (currently on the air as 4U1WRC), the station belonging to the International Amateur Radio Club (IARC), located in the International Telecommunications Union building in Geneva, Switzerland. Post-fact: some colleagues and friends asked how it’s been. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since last October, ABC is broadcasting in the US (on Tuesdays) a new sitcom, named &#8220;Last Man Standing&#8221;, starring Tim Allen. This wouldn&#8217;t make much sense here, but Mike Baxter (the character played by Allen) is an ham, and that makes interesting going through the subject. I investigated a bit how it could have happened. [...]]]></description>

He advised me, via e-mail, he was listening on 7149 kHz, so I set-up the radio and started calling. Nothing heard, but if every sked on this Earth would take place at first, then hobby could even get boring. A [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you have, as yours truly, a good window to the east, Radio Free Asia has some interesting transmitting sites to chase. For some of them it&#8217;s also the last opportunity given to log some entities. For example, Saipan &#8211; long time home of KFBS (who hasn&#8217;t got their &#8220;Rainbow over the Ocean&#8221; QSL?!) &#8211; [...]]]></description>

So, thanks to an unusually warm January Sunday, I decided to bring out, for an in-depth cleaning, the RT-70/GRC I recently bought at a hamvention. Surplus and boatanchors lovers will well know this unit. It puts out 0.5 Watts [...]]]></description>

JN63IX) and with a simple HT, from the 9A0VRI 2m repeater, located in Ucka, Croatia (loc. JN75CG). One morning, I noticed that tropo was so strong, that not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Confirmations from NHK/Radio Japan were already in my list. However, they related to relays in Singapore and Chile. Nothing from the stations&#8217; land. Luckily enough, the 6085 kHz evening broadcast in Japanese (from Yamata) is not an impossible catch from Europe. I had it last December, at 21.13 UTC, in a week when also Nikkei [...]]]></description>

I had the chance to change this state of things during last December, thanks to the 9365 kHz Indonesian broadcast of Radio Netherlands Worldwide, coming from Talata-Volondry at 21.26 UTC.

I don&#8217;t know who&#8217;s in charge of QSLing at the station, but the handwriting on their cards is the same of the era before &#8220;the end of the world&#8221;.
