This is my the last contest from JN44SN: did you ever used a chopper to fly down from a mountain top?  We   did!   Left to right: the owner of the chopper, I2UIY, I1MXI, IW2DVK and IK1QQW.      
The best places for contesting in Italy are located in JN44-JN54-JN63-JN64 ( I1,I4 and I5 call area). When at the end of 1989  Angelo I2ADN offered to me and I2FUM his location in JN44SN (1777 m a.s.l. in Genova province) we decided to go there and run  on 2m, 70cm, 23cm, 13cm and 6cm until 1992.

IARU Contest July 1990 -Our first experience in the northern part of HB9
IARU CONTEST - MARCH 1988

HB9/IW2DVK/P JN45MW  Multiop. with HB9SUL and IW2EWG 

In my old QTH I had a very bad take off so most part of my activity was /p operations. The northern part of I2 area is close to  the Alps so we haven't  any competitive places  for contesting. I made my first experience on the mountain between JN45 and JN46 as  IW2DVK/2 and  HB9/IW2DVK on 2m and 70 cm.
