XXI Italian Antarctic Scientific Expedition ready to start.
Next October 18th, the first group of Specialists and Logistic will leave to
Terra Nova Bay , Antartica, to open the Italian Mario Zucchelli Station.
The Antarctic season 2005-2006, is therefore begun for the Italians as well.
The Communication Officer at MZS, is Carlo Risani IK5DHM, Chief of Firemen
for the entire period from October 22nd 2005 to the end of February 2006.
He has received a brand new call sign II0AMZS (Italy Italy Zero Antarctic
Mario Zucchelli Station) (WAP ITA-01) and will operate from the Italian Base
with this call, and alternatively also with IK5DHM/ANT.
QSL manager will be Paolo Gori, I5GWO.
During his stay, Carlo, will try to activate a couple of remote camps such
as Mid Point and Tolos Dome, which will be WAP referenced, after the
operation (not sure by now). Carlo will also try to operate for a couple of
days from Concordia Dome C ( WAP MNB-03).
Other goof friends will join the Team: Maj. Angelo Romito and Maj. Giorgio
Alessio, Meteorologists of Italian Air Force and veteran of previous
Scientific Expedition. Sure the Team is a great one and we whish them all
the best for their long staying in Antarctica.
Shortly, a new web site lead by PNRA (Programma Nazionale di Ricerche in
Antartide), the Italian Antarctic Program Dept., will be on line and well
let the Chasers informed and updated.
