It is with deep regret I read the sad news about the passing away of another
good VHF Friend. 

 

Claudio was one of the few Italian stations who I could work in summertime 
via Defraction on the Alps. JN63GV was around 1000Km for me (from my old 
QTH) We worked over a dozen times (between 1997 and 1999) via Defraction/
Iono/Tropo all in CW of coarse. Claudio was a very good CW operator. Also 
many MS QSO’s are in the log with Claudio, still have some recordings. “ I 
four X cee cee “  in SSB is what I remind me of his calling on 144.200 
Random SSB meteor-scatter frequency. 

 

It’s like Matej says A Friend even though we never met.  Polite, very kind, 
and a keen operator always willing to do some tests.  In that days we talked
to each other on WW-converse channel 14345 to arrange skeds. 

 

Another HUGE loss to the VHF (UHF/SHF) community 

 

Rest in Peace my friend  …-.-

Hi all, 

I've just got terrible shocking message from Roberto, IK2OFO, 

that well known Claudio I4XCC became Silent Key yesterday. 

Funeral will be held on 28th November. 

 

Claudio was very good friend of mine although we've never 

met personally. He was very active in SSB and CW on 2m 

since 1974, well known to whole VHF DX community and 

since 2003 he stared to be very active on 10 GHz. Most 

of stations in Middle Europe are remembering to his strong 

signal via Rainscatter. I'd say that he was one of the most 

known 3cm station ever. 

 

I remember to our first QSO on 10 GHz on 18th June 2006 

(QRB 705km). At that time I used only indoor 15dB horn antenna 

and about 3W at output of waveguide. We were both amazed 

that such a QSO is possible with such a small equipment and since 

then we had 30x RS QSOs + more 3cm contacts under my 

club OK2KKW/OK2A. It was always fun because Claudio 

was excellent CW operator so we were able to have short QRQ 

talking in CW. I must also remember to his 3cm expedition into 

San Marino T7 during Summer 2010. Thank to him I was able to 

work T70A on 3cm QRB 707km with my small horn antenna, 

truly amazing. 

 

It was really shocking to read from IK2OFO that he passed us yesterday 

only in age of 60.. Claudio was very unselfish, friendly, extraordinary 

man, who will be very, very missed. 

 

RIP Claudio dear friend.. 

 

  

Matej, OK1TEH
