RSGB Transatlantic Centenary Event

19th December 2022

The TC activity is going well. There are many award chasers looking for QSOs with the eleven call signs, plus plenty of interest from North America.

After 18 days, we have made over 90,000 QSO, roughly 45% of which have been digital, 30% CW and 25% SSB. A full breakdown by band and mode is published each day on the RSGB website – see below.

You can also find the leaderboard there, which is interesting, with both UK and non-UK stations competing for the two trophies with some dedication and enthusiasm.

Full details of how to take part are on the RSGB website, see www.rsgb.org/tct.

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.
