PJ6Y Saba

Announcing the 2025 PJ6Y DXpedition to Saba                                                                             Co-leaders Gregg W6IZT, Dean W2FQ, and Jeff NM1Y, in collaboration with Youth on the Air (YOTA), are thrilled to announce our upcoming DXpedition to Saba!

We will arrive on Saba on October 17, 2025, and be on the air through October 29, 2025. Our primary operating site is situated on the north side of the island at an elevation of approximately1,200 feet. The team will consist of 14 on-island operators, including eight young operators under the age of 25. Notably, four of these young ops participated as remote operators in the recent 3D2Y DXpedition to Rotuma. The local team will be complimented by 25-30 remote operators.

We will have 3 stations available for local operators. We extend a special thanks to the Northern California DX Foundation for their generous grant, to construct two NexGenRiBs2 stations based on Elecraft K4Ds for remote operation.
Activity will be on 80–6 meters + satellite and we will also participate in the CQWW SSB contest.

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.
