HISTORY 

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

It’s April 1997. A group of friends, all amateur radio enthusiasts, come together with a shared
goal: to focus their efforts on activating various Italian islands. In a short time, the group grows rapidly as many new friends join in, and thus the Mediterraneo DX Team is born. Just one year later, the Mediterraneo DX Team is already one of the most active and prominent DX
teams in Italy.

A dedicated group of unstoppable radio enthusiasts activate numerous new and
rare locations and islands. As their reputation spreads, more enthusiasts from other countries are
eager to join the adventure, leading to the transformation of the team into the Mediterraneo DX Club in 1998.
