AU2V Sacrifice Rock – India

The AU2V Team are now qrv from Sacrifice rock.
 
”We’re facing some tough challenges on the rock! The surface is too hard to nail into, and we’re struggling to find even a small piece of rock to secure our equipment.
To make matters worse, we’ve had boat acceleration issues, which caused delays in transportation from the big boat to the small boat. The sea has been rough, except for a few hours.
 
Despite these challenges, we’re managing to operate two stations with digital and CW modes, albeit with low power.
 

We’ve made around 1400 contacts so far, but we’re not focusing on the numbers. We’re committed to giving chasers the best chance to make contact, regardless of mode or power.
Due to the CQ WPX contest, we’ve moved our WSJT Fox mode operations to frequencies lower than RTTY.
 
Thanks for your understanding, and we look forward to making more contacts! #DXpedition #HamRadio #AU2V

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 38 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.

In my free time I am a keen Photographer of Wildlife but the QSL Manager role is my main passion within Ham Radio.
