NEWS UPDATE by G0VJG.

The website will be fully running by tomorrow with our info. Due to solar minimum we have published some operating frequencies so people know where to expect us. The journey is long so we expect to be on site and on the air late evening Tuesday 25th April.

We have gone to some lengths to favour the low bands with 4 square antennas for 30 and 40m, also verticals for 30 and 160m. We have two mobile trailer towers each with two beams for other bands.

We hope to have two stations on the air all the time but have capability and man power to run 5 stations at once.

The team is made up of 10 UK hams and ZS6JR Daniel who has supplied the logistics and most of the equipment.

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.
