Club News
The club had an excellent turnout for Winter Field Day with over 20 members and guests showing up throughout the day for both POTA and Winter Field Day activities.
Â
Jason VE3PLJ as well as Tim VA3TMA were able to work a distant island station in Northern Scotland on 10 meters while Ian VE3INP worked numerous station on the VHF and UHF bands from an Arrow J-Pole extended some 10 meters into the air.

The club had 5 guests visit, one a local ham from South Etobicoke and four of whom were from NY State visiting. The group used Ian’s Arrow Branded 2M beam to connect with Yuri VA3GKX in Richmond Hill from their 5 Watt Baofengs.

Dec 18th 2022 - Antenna Assistance
The club is currently looking for assistance in the reclamation, transport and storage of Skywide property housed at Bruce Roney’s home. The former president of the club (SK) has for many years housed and transported club property with a trailer, unfortunately the time has come for his wife to downsize and the equipment must be moved. The antenna components range in size with the largest tubes just under 18ft / 5.5 meters in length.
If anyone can offer assistance or storage space, the club would be much appreciated.
Please contact skywidearc@gmail.com if you can offer any assistance.
Here are photos of the equipment as was housed at Bruces home in July 2022.
