Posted on by

Dear Sparks,

the first international radio center built in Italy by Guglielmo MARCONI has been COLTANO RADIO, it was a multifunctional radio center served the fixed radiotelegraphic service and the beginning of radiocommunications at sea. Coltano is located near the famous town of Pisa well known for the “miracles square”. Unfortunately since the end of the II WW the structures existing in the old radio center and the antenna systems have been completely abandoned. After big pressures arrived to the Government several months ago the big project for recovering the Radio Center started, the BIGGEST SOS has been launched by Pincess Elettra who expressed Her regrets for the conditions of Coltano where Her father built the first Italian International Radio Station.
