DU1UD/8 IOTA OC-105

29th April 2019

Dindo DU1UD will again make an attempt on this rare IOTA, the Most Wanted in DU.

He will be qrv from Mapin Island (aka Mapun, formerly Cagayan de Sulu, Cagayan de Tawi-Tawi etc) IOTA OC-105 from Friday 3rd May for approximately 2 weeks.

He is a single operator on this one and will be qrv around his work schedule. He will be running an Elekraft K3 and KPA-500 into Vertical/VDA antennas.

Dindo is aware of how needed this is all around the Globe and will do his upmost to reach as many areas as propagation allows.

Please remember this is currently a dangerous part of the World and the safety will always be paramount. Bear this in mind if he suddenly disappears off frequency without warning

Charles M0OXO

I was born in the 1960’s and have lived all my life in the Coal Mining Town of Barnsley in South Yorkshire, Northern England. My parents were all from this area of Yorkshire and my father worked in the main Industry of the local Collieries as a face worker. I have been married to my wife Debbie for 35+ years and we have two children and two grandchildren.

I have been licensed for around 20 years after my interest was re-kindled when I retired from my role as a Police Officer within South Yorkshire Police Force. The latter few years were spent as Radio Operator in the Force Operations Control Room at Sheffield, before my career ended.

IOTA chasing is (and always has been) my real passion, as climbing the ladder to reach Honour Roll status was always my main aim. The 1000 Islands Trophy is still out of reach but I am heading in the right direction. I am currently a Board Member of IOTA Ltd and IREF.

In my free time I am a keen Photographer of Wildlife, Aviation, (anything really) but the QSL Manager role is my main passion within Ham Radio.
