VY0ERC Ellesmere Island, Nunavut & VE3KTB/VE8 Yellowknife, Canada

I was please to receive a message this morning from Pierre (VE3KTB) & Alex (VE1RUS) to say that they hope to be back at the Eureka site (IOTA NA-008) around the 11th October 2021.

Meanwhile they are isolating prior to their departure to Eureka in Yellowknife, Canada when they will be erecting antennas and hope to be on air as VE3KTB/VE8.

They will be qrv on all modes in particular FT8 and by Satellite and hope to be QRV in Contests such as CQWW and the ARRL Sweepstakes.

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.
