I went to this Lighthouse to transmit with a special call II2SRT/6 for the SRE2009, Strange radio Event; near the Lighthouse there is also a Tower, Torre di Punta Penna, referenced DCI-CH052 for the DCI Italian Castles Award, and so I activated both LH and Tower the day 17th of October, 2009, using at first the special Call II2SRT/6 and then my own call I2JJR/6 .
Working conditions were : 9m tall fishing rod antenna, with radials and counterpoises, tuned at its base by the Icom AH4; rig was the Icom IC7000 running at 50-80w with a car battery, 12V 60Ah , with marine battery booster mostly off.
During the SRE2009 days ( www.strangeradioevent.com )I also have transmitted from the ARLHS ITA-108 lighthouse, see there.
