IZ5CML, Enrico Giannerini, obtained his amateur radio license in 1998, achieving DXCC contacts with all entities over 18 years of activity. His station, located in Empoli, Tuscany, Italy, focuses on HF and 50 MHz operations, primarily using SSB, CW, and some RTTY. He emphasizes direct radio communication, preferring "human modes" over digital modes like FT8/4, which he views as detaching the operator from the signal. Enrico's operating interests include DXing, IOTA activations, and major HF contests, where he has participated both individually and with teams like IQ5LV and IO5O. Notable activations include Sao Miguel and Flores (CU8, EU-089) in the Azores in 2005, and Antiparos and Paros (EU-067) in Greece in 2006 and 2014. He also contributes to the Hamradioweb forum, promoting good operating practices and publishing the monthly "Dxschedule" for upcoming DX and contest activities. The website includes a blog with articles on DX, ionospheric propagation, and antennas, reflecting his long-standing passion for radio, sparked by the 1980s film "La Tenda Rossa" and years as an SWL.

The Utility DXers Forum (UDXF) provides a centralized platform for exchanging news and information concerning utility radio stations and signals operating within the 0 to 30 MHz spectrum. It specifically excludes broadcasting, pirate, and amateur radio transmissions, concentrating instead on a diverse array of other signals. The resource details the types of stations covered, including maritime coastal and ship stations, aeronautical ground and aircraft communications (voice, HFDL, Selcalls, Volmet), military operations, various beacons (NDB, driftnet, propagation, pirate, high-frequency), fax transmissions, numbers stations, diplomatic communications, clandestines, and other unusual signals. Further content addresses radar systems such as Over-the-Horizon, Ocean Wave, and CODAR, alongside ionosondes, chirpsounders, ALE-systems, Selcall-systems, and tone calls. Experimental stations and standard frequency and time stations are also within its scope. The forum also acknowledges utility radio-related amateur events like the International Lighthouse Weekend and Night of Nights, providing a broader context for listeners. The site offers sections for modes, hardware, software, a utility radio archive, digital BC & HF conditions, and a utility radio club archive, along with QSLs and pennants.

This project describes the construction of a W3HH (T2FD) antenna for HF bands (3-30 MHz). While less efficient than a tuned dipole, it offers broad frequency coverage with a maximum SWR of 3.4 and reduces QRM (noise) significantly. On the 80-meter band, it shows slightly weaker signals than a dipole but with improved signal-to-noise ratio. The design includes non-inductive resistors, a 13:1 balun, and a "frog ladder" transmission line. Though not a high-performance antenna, it is compact and versatile, making it ideal for wide-band HF communication. Article in French

Operating Slow Scan Television (SSTV) often requires specialized software to encode and decode images for transmission over amateur radio frequencies. The _MMSSTV_YONIQ_ project provides an updated iteration of the widely used _MMSSTV_ software, originally developed by JE3HHT, incorporating modern functionalities requested by the SSTV community. This version integrates the _Omni-Rig_ system for seamless transceiver control, supports both Spanish and English interfaces, and enables direct data downloads from QRZ.com, streamlining logging and contact management for operators. The software also includes practical enhancements such as frequency memory storage, compatibility with various digital logbooks, and a visual indicator for image transmission and reception progress. Significant improvements have been made to image reception settings, allowing for more effective decoding even on systems with limited PC resources, though it can be configured for higher performance on modern machines. The development involved new code and modifications to existing source code, released under a GNU license. Installation instructions are provided, noting that the initial setup defaults to Spanish but can be easily switched to English. The project emphasizes its role as a continuation of JE3HHT's original work, aiming to keep SSTV operations current with 21st-century amateur radio practices. Support for new features is available through the MMSSTV forum on Groups.io.
