THE LOGO
 

 
The Radio is symbol of TAISC 2024

 
This year marks the centenary of the beginning of radio broadcasts in Italy (October 6th, 1924)


In Italy, which on a technological level was the homeland of radio, use of radio transmissions was permitted only for military purposes,

and a 1910 law prohibited its use by civilians.
Only in 1924, a  late compared to the rest of the world, began the commercial broadcasts.


For the logo the radio chosen is Radio Cubo ts522, this model is designed in 1962 by architects Marco Zanuso and Richard Sapper and marketed since 1964 by Brionvega, an Italian company (active from 1945 to 1994) specialized in the consumer electronics sectors.

Examples of this radio are permanently exhibited at the MOMA in New York and at the modern art museums of La Jolla, Osaka and Sao Paulo.
 


Key dates of italian radio history

In August 1924 the Italian Radio Union (URI) was born, it held the government concession to broadcast and there was only one radio station.
January 1928 - URI becomes EIAR (Italian Auditing Body). Italian radio becomes a means of mass communication
December 13th, 1931 the first radio commentary of the football match was broadcast (Italy vs Hungary)
After the end of the war in 1944, Rai (Radio Audizioni Italiane) was born and the radio entered the homes of the majority of Italians.
In 1950 the reform of the radio system established the creation of three networks
In 1951 the first edition of the Sanremo Festival was broadcast live
In 1976 did the RAI monopoly lapse thanks to a ruling by the Constitutional Court and the broadcasters already active in Italy (around 400), so-called "pirate radio" will then become "free radio"
In the 1980s, private national radio stations began to emerge, many of which are still active today

joining? This must already be a top ten edition of the TISC 

Gut is 3 secs back in 2nd, Grenier 5 secs back in 3rd, Bassino 8 (!!) secs back in 4th.

Croatia is in

Palestine and Syria have qualified their first athletes in equestrian.

Well, that's too bad for Mia Hastrup, as funnily enough, Hastrup & Constantin M are supreme to Trunda & Shutterflykke at cross-country.

Trunda just got lucky to get his result at an easy (if not suspiciously easy) course in Romania...
 

Eventing: Update from FEI
 
*Correction 05/01/2024 - Czech Republic to receive the third individual slot not Denmark as initially announced on 3/01/2024 as there was a tie in the Rankings for that third NOC individual qualification slot between Mia HASTRUP from Denmark and Miroslav TRUNDA from Czech Republic. Both Athletes were ranked equal in their results as athlete/horse combinations which does not break the tie according to the Olympic Eventing Ranking Rules and therefore Article 528.1.6 Final Classification Tie (Individual) from the FEI Eventing Rules has been applied – whereby the combination with the best XC score at the highest level event would be ranked first and obtain the individual quota place for their NOC. In accordance with Article 528.1.6 Final Classification Tie (Individual), Miroslav TRUNDA (CZE) riding SHUTTERFLYKE have obtained the best XC score, and should therefore be ranked above Mia HASTRUP (DEN) riding CONSTANTIN M in the Rankings, making the Individual Quota place go to Czech Republic and not Denmark.

Well done to  Mytilineou! Our first time participating in equestrian at the Olympics since 2004
