HI Rob – just looking over the web site now. Great job I know its lots of work. I have given Al a flash drive with the Lara History on it. Their are lots of photos there as well. I see you are missing the photos of the Silent Keys that use to belong to the club. I will look to see if I have any. Last one that passed was Terry Lad. It would be nice if we had a photo of her. Might want to check with Robert on that one. Will keep in touch.

Hi Gordon
Thank you again for checking in with us Monday night. Tonight is the CCVT city funded emergency groups net at 8pm local same echolink connection if interested.
Regarding satellite comunications our city ffunded group has several of theses, our ARES group has no funds for such at this time (unless you have some to donate?)
That being said we are following amsat s progress in 2019 they hope to have an emergency comunications satellite up for all emergency groups to use. ..

Hi Gordon
Glad to hear of your friends move to paradise.
We live in such a spactacular place. In 45 minuts from Vancouver you can be skiing in winter or mountain biking in summer at whistler. In 1.45 you can be on a quite beach north or south vancouver island. And if you are a boarder, oh my.
I grew up near the ocean and have sailed all up and down the Pacific Northwest. There are so many nooks and cranny to explore and Moore over night you would not believe it.
More over if you are a Ham, there are repeters everywhere.
We live inland now here in Langley as my wife and girls wanted horses, but in 20 minuts I can have the boat in the water at Crecent Beach Marina.
Needles to say I’m a big fan of Super Natural British Columbia.

Dear Rob, Thanks for the feedback, I shared it with my friend. BC certainly has a lot to offer but Ottawa has some special things being the capital. There are some very interesting people on 2 meters. I have debugged some gremlins in my computer so I will give Echolink another try. 73 Gordon Ball VE3CSH Ottawa

Happy Fathers Day if that applies..
