Welcome to the World Beauties Award! The WBA TEAM and the dx DA-RC group have established, starting from 2024, a permanent Award aimed at enhancing and promoting the greatest possible worldwide number of sites of historical, cultural and tourist interest on a beautiful 11 Meters Band.


1AT227 Livio: The “Beauty Hunter” Between Waves and History ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ“ก

Some collect stamps, others take photographs, but Livio, 1AT227, captures emotions through the ether. For those frequenting the 11-meter bands, his callsign is a household name: an operator who blends technical expertise with an overwhelming passion for the World Beauties Award (WBA). ๐Ÿ†โœจ

A Profile Rooted in Passion ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ“œ

Livio is no newcomer. With 30 years of activity under his beltโ€”having started at just 15, struck by the magic of an AM contact with Spainโ€”today, at 45, he stands as a pillar of Ligurian radio. Broadcasting from the stunning province of Genoa โš“๐Ÿ”๏ธ, a land of sea and hills, he perfectly navigates the challenges of DX contacts and rugged activations.

A member of the prestigious Alfa Tango group for over twenty years, Livio brings with him the experience gained from historic associations. However, it is within the World Beauties Award circuit that he has found his ideal dimension as a dedicated “Hunter.” ๐ŸŽฏ๐Ÿ›ฐ๏ธ

Goal 2026: Aiming for the Podium! ๐Ÿฅ‰๐Ÿฅˆ๐Ÿฅ‡

While past years served to solidify his presence, 2026 marks the moment for a significant leap in quality. Livio has thrown down the gauntlet, and he hasn’t done so quietly: this year, his declared goal is the podium. ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ”ฅ

His determination is at an all-time high. Itโ€™s not just about participating; itโ€™s about climbing the hunter rankings with surgical consistency. Those who know him understand that when Livio sets his sights on a target, he rarely lets go of the VFO knob. The WBA competition is heating up, but the “two-two-seven” from the province of Genoa promises to be a constant fixture at the very top of the rankings! ๐Ÿ“ˆโšก

A Relentless WBA Hunter ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ

For Livio, the WBA is more than just a certificate or a score. As he often emphasizes, what drives him to be “on air” for almost every event is the intrinsic value of the references. Whether itโ€™s a perched castle, a lonely lighthouse, or ancient ruins, every activation tells a story of sacrifice, culture, and beauty. ๐Ÿ›๏ธ๐ŸŒ…

His “Hunter” spirit keeps him constantly ready and listening. His hunger for contacts is fueled by a desire to learn: every connection is an opportunity to delve into the history of the activated site, bringing the true spirit of HF into the 11-meter world. ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ“š

References and Contacts: The Role of 1AT227 ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ๐Ÿ“ก

Livio is an indefatigable seeker. His activity is documented by an impressive number of linked references, ranging from minor islands and archaeological sites to rural churches. His consistency has made him one of the most well-known and friendly voices in the circuit. ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ๐Ÿค

He doesn’t just receive, though; Livio is a true antenna expert. He often builds his own equipment, constantly searching for unique locations to maximize his station’s performance, ensuring his signal reaches activators loud and clear. ๐Ÿ—ผ๐Ÿ”


Conclusion ๐ŸŒŸ

The radio world needs characters like Livio: operators who don’t forget their roots but know how to evolve toward prestigious international challenges. With the podium in his crosshairs and his trademark Ligurian charisma, 1AT227 is ready to battle through the propagation. ๐Ÿ“ถ๐Ÿ’ช

Good luck, Livio… see you on the air! 73! ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ๐Ÿ’™
