HISTORY 

Historical photo that shows the founding members activating Cirella Island (EU-144)

It’s April 1997.
Some friends – amateur radio enthusiasts – decide to focus their efforts on the activation of several Italian islands.
In a short time the group grows so much and a lot of new friends join the team: it was born the Mediterraneo DX Team.

One year later Mediterraneo DX Team is already among the most lively and large DX-teams in Italy. An army of unstoppable radio enthusiasts activate a lot of new and rare locations/islands; day by day new friends ask to join and share the adventure even from other countries so the old DX team changes into The Mediterraneo DX Club. It was 1998.
