Very sad to hear of Fausto's passing.  I worked I4EAT on the VHF bands, 
My first QSO with him was in early 1979 on 144 MHz moonbounce. We had 
many QSOs on 144 and also 50 MHz E Skip.   I treasure those early 144 
MHz EME QSOs.  Fausto will be dearly missed but not forgotten.

 OM Paolo,

Thank you for sharing the sad news about Fausto.

He was quite an accomplished DX'er (huge numbers) who held a similar call to 
mine.

I treasure the time in 2013 when I got to spend the day with you, I4EAT, and 
T77C in Ravenna and San Marino. One of my favorite ham memories.

73,

Ken, K4TEA

I'm so sorry to hear the news of Fausto's death, especially since it 
came from this damnable Covid-19.


Rest in Peace, Fausto.
