Stations with a historical connection to Guglielmo Marconi who wish to register as Award Stations for the first time are asked to contact the Webmaster as soon as possible, giving details of their connection to G. Marconi between 1896 and 1937.

The Cornish Radio Amateur Club (CRAC) would be most grateful if those stations already registered as Award Stations could confirm to the Webmaster in due course whether or not they will be operating during the 2010 event on the 24th April, 2010.

In April 1923, Guglielmo Marconi spent some 10 days aboard his yacht Elettra in Falmouth Harbour, Cornwall.  During that time he operated from the yacht and also travelled overland to his Poldhu station. In addition he entertained local dignitaries aboard the Elettra, and demonstrated his equipment to them.
