MQ0AWS will be on air 01/06/22 – 30/06/22

To celebrate Her Majesty the Queen Platinum Jubilee, marking 70 years of service to the people of the United Kingdom, the Realms and the Commonwealth, U.K. Radio Amateur (HAM) operators can apply for a Notice of Variation (NOV) to use the Q Regional Secondary Locator.

The RSGB will also be operating a bunch of GB70 special event stations, full details on the GB70 website.

I have my NOV and will be on air using MQ0AWS for the whole of June 2022.

This callsign will operate for one month only and so will be a rare one for you to get in your log.

I will be operating on all HF bands 160-10m CW & FT4/8 and maybe some SSB depending on conditions.

All MQ0AWS logs will be uploaded to my website almost realtime and will be uploaded to EQSL at the end of June 2022.

If you hear me calling CQ please give me a call.

More soon …

HMQ Platinum Jubilee NoV

MQ0AWS QRZ.COM entry

During the month of June 2022 U.K. radio HAMs will be able to use the “Q” regional secondary locator in their callsigns to celebrate Her Majesty the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

I now have my notice of variation (NOV) for my HAM Radio licence that will allow me to use the callsign of MQ0AWS throughout the month of June 2022.

I’ll be active on all HF bands using CW and FT4/8 mostly. I may do some SSB on 40/60m depending on how it goes.

I’m hoping many stations world wide will want to contact the GQ/MQ/2Q stations throughout the celebration period and that you’ll all be able to collect the 70 necessary callsigns and contacts to win an RSGB certificate.

I will be logging all contacts on EQSL.CC at the end of June 2022.

More information is available on the RSGB website.

I look forward to using the MQ callsign and hope to have many pileups on the bands!

More soon …
