We have been informed, that our well-known member and formerly president of IR-DX group from the past, 1IR749 Stefano passed away on January 2nd 2026. 

Stefano has been a good friend of many members inside IR-DX Group and he was a visitor of several IR-meetings around Europe. Also his memorable meetings in Modena Italy were great and we do remember his 266IR/0 activation from Eastern Kiribati.

For several years, he did a lot of work for the International Radio DX Group which we will never forget.

Rest in Peace Stefano
