On Sunday 18 April 2022, a unique amateur radio station went on the air for a brief time in the evening.
GB1BB (Bramble Bank) was located in the Solent on a sandbank that only uncovers for short periods at extremely low water a few times per year.
I heard the station on 40 meters SSB, 2 meters FM simplex, and on 70cms via the GB3IW repeater on the Isle of Wight.
This video contains a few contacts on GB3IW. The lady you hear is Lizzie M7CZW and she obtained her Foundation licence recently specially for the GB1BB event. Given that she is new to amateur radio, she did a superb job at handling all the stations calling her. At times it was almost like a pileup on HF.
This was a gloriously odd Special Event Station from a unique location... and I loved it! Kudos to the Isle of Wight Radio Society and I really hope they do it again in the future!
