Ciao fellow ham operators and shortwave listeners, :-) Thank you for looking up my call sign.

I was born on June 4,1972. I am a pharmacist and practice in Nardò, Lecce, Puglia, Italy -http://www.farmaciabenegiamopagliula.it.

 Farmacia Benegiamo - Pagliula. Find us also on Facebook.

I married Marianna in 2001 and I have three children, Carlo Maria born in 2004, Mirella born in 2007 and Gemma born on May 28th, 2013.

I am a Co-founder of the International Pharmacists Ham Group (I.P.H.G.) along with IK2UVR and Past President of the Young Pharmacists Association of the Province of Lecce.

The I.P.H.G. webpage is http://www.iphg.altervista.org/or find us on Facebook as International Pharmacists Ham Group.

Please have a look and passalong the information to any friends who might be "ham pharmacists" too! My station is a valid contact for our I.P.H.G. AWARD. It's free and more info can be found on the I.P.H.G. web site.

For more information on Nardò, have a look at the web sitehttp://www.comune.nardo.le.it. It is in southeast Italy - JN90AE, close to the Ionian Sea, 28 kilometers southwest of Lecce and over 600 kilometers from Rome in the area called “Salento”. You can look at http://www.turismo.provincia.le.it .

The population here is over 32,000. Nardò is recognized for it's Baroque style and its homes on the seaside.

Hobbies: DXing on 10, 15, 17 and 20M (favourite). I also like reading (N. Gordon, G. Jennings, W. Smith) and swimming in our wonderful Ionian Sea.

If we make contact, QSL by the bureau is ok, but you are welcome to QSL direct. If you do, there is no need to send an IRC, stamps or money. SWL QSL will be confirmed 100%. Please NO eQsl.

Please have a look my QSl:

I like to “Ragchew” with the contacts I make, not just exchange numbers like 59. I'd like to know about you and yours. You are welcome to send me an email if you want.
WhatsApp: send me an email and I will give you my mobile phone number.
