Sophia (aged six)
Sophia was mentored by her father Chris, M0KPW so that she could complete activities totalling six points to gain the Radio Surfer Award – for which the points total has to be the same as her age.
Sophia has always shown interest in amateur radio and has enjoyed sending greetings messages for a number of years, especially to female operators.
She has accompanied her Dad on a number of SOTAs over the last 18 months when restrictions have allowed. To gain the Radio Surfer Award she designed a QSL Card for a greetings message she had recently on HF (including a princess in her design) and sent four greetings messages on a SOTA activation.
