425 DX News issue #1403

DXCC prefix: I - Italy

Ninety years ago the airship "Italia" crashed on the ice on its way back from the North Pole, and a small tent dyed red for maximum visibility was the only shelter for the survivors. Commemorating the role of radio (and amateur radio) in rescuing the Red Tent survivors, ARI Vigevano will be active as IB2RT between 20 March and 20 October. QSL via I2MYF or eQSL. [TNX IK2AVH]
