    JVCKENWOOD is pleased to announce that it will support the Civitavecchia section of the ARI Italian Radio Amateur Association, together with the Italian and international commemorative stations, on the occasion of the celebrations for the anniversary of the birth of the father of the radio Guglielmo Marconi.


    Next Saturday, April 21st, first Saturday useful near the birth date of the first Italian Nobel, the International Marconi Day is celebrated all over the world.


    In Italy, a dozen memorial sites will broadcast transmissions by setting up radio stations in the places where Marconi put into practice and experimented with his forward-looking ideas.

    In particular in Torre Chiaruccia, in the municipality of Santa Marinella, Marconi carried out an intense research activity in the field of microwaves and was a forerunner of modern radiocommunication techniques with particular attention to the UHF band.


    The Marcon site of Torre Chiaruccia (owner JN52WA), of extraordinary historical and scientific importance, has been activated every year since 1989 by the A.R.I. Section. of Civitavecchia, with the special name IY0TC on the occasion of the International Marconi Day.


    From 1 January 2018, thanks to an agreement between the Aeronautica Militare, the A.R.I. of Civitavecchia, the CReSM (Marconi Experimental Radioelectric Center) started the project to create the Science Park Marconi - Aeronautica Militare at the Torre Chiaruccia site.


    Within the A.R.I. Civitavecchia is setting up a radio station for international connections that will be dedicated to the memory of the radio amateur Civitavecchiese Patrizio Ciancarini, which he broadcast for the first time from Torre Chiaruccia in 1989.


    JVCKENWOOD will offer its invaluable contribution in the preparation of the radio station by providing three KENWOOD transceivers: TS2000, TS590S and the top of the TS990S range in addition to its professional video and live streaming equipment under the JVC brand of the Pro-HD GY-HM200ESB series .

    "JVCKENWOOD is proud to be an active part of the celebrations of the Marconi Day 2018, providing its support to the friends of the ARI Section of Civitavecchia" - comments Alessandro Carelli, Sales Manager Communications of JVCKENWOOD Italia S.p.A. - "On the site of Torre Chiaruccia, finally reactivated in its original location, will be made available to the top-range radio equipment of the KENWOOD brand, which will allow radio amateurs from all over the world to get in touch with this historic site, in addition to be at the complete disposal of the fans who will intervene on site. At the same time a professional JVC camcorder will also be activated, which will allow broadcasting of the event in direct streaming all over the world, thus adding the visual component to this commemorative event of one of the most famous Italians, father of modern communications "
