We also will be starting an HF net, likely in the new year once we work on a frequency that will go on year round.
60 Meter news. After Industry Canada called for input to the new 60 meter band, we are still waiting for them to make a decision on when it will go back to normal call signs, what power and how many new channels will we have. It looks like they will let this lapse on March 31st, and if they dont have it worked out by then the will ask for more money for another year to operate with the special VX9 calls.
The band is working well now that the summer is behind us, and I have been making calls into the UK as well as South America. Its a very interesting band that is similar to 40 and 80 meters.
