Canadian Amateur Radio Magazine. Monday, 21 June 2010. I worked a bit of VHF SSB from my location downtown. I had an 11 element 2 meter yagi up on the roof, on a tripod. I was using a Kenwood TR-9000 10 watt all mode transceiver. I picked up an 80 watt amplifier at the Rochester Hamfest and managed to work into South Carolina with that set up. Links to this post.

Canadian Amateur Radio Magazine. Monday, 19 July 2010. Great Weekend With DX. Weather in the Ottawa area was superb this weekend. BBQs and relaxing outside were the order of the day. Temperatures moderated to the mid-20s (Celsius) on Sunday. This necessitated some outdoor relaxation and a good book. The station was Ramon PZ5RA in Suriname. Links to this post. Friday, 9 July 2010. Late Night DX On 20 Meters. It’s out there. Last night saw me re-connect with Bill, ZL3NB. Bill’s ham shack in New Zeala...

VE3MPG's Blog: Canadian CBC Monitoring Station at Richmond Ontario c.1983
http://ve3mpg.blogspot.com/2014/08/canadian-cbc-monitoring-station-at.html
Canadian Amateur Radio Magazine. Wednesday, 13 August 2014. Canadian CBC Monitoring Station at Richmond Ontario c.1983. From my amateur radio collection of photos - these were shot on Ektachrome 100 way back in 1983. CBC used this station to record and re-broadcast BBC and other shortwave broadcasts for Canadian listeners. The station has been long gone but the original building is still there out on Fallowfield Road in Ottawa's rural west end. It may be a private residence now. More photos to follow!

Canadian Amateur Radio Magazine. Friday, 31 August 2012. Take A Cool Stand. A few months ago I happened to be at one of the local Dollar Stores. They do have some interesting end of line and overstock items for sale especially in their electrical and electronic aisles. You can see the detail close up to the right. Works great and I’ve got a couple of extra for future projects. The modem and keyboard are powered from either and external 9V – 12V supply. A USB dongle is able to log call signs and...By now ...

Canadian Amateur Radio Magazine. Wednesday, 24 October 2012. Band Conditions and DX. My apologies for not posting of late. Just too much going on but I do manage to get down to the shack late in the evenings. This has always been my favourite time to hunt DX. I’m a casual DXer and I don’t do contests. My work schedule allows for late nights and early morning operating times. I follow Hamspots.net. Earlier at 0445Z I worked Metin in Istanbul Turkey on 20m psk31. I noticed that I worked the Turkish and...
