Air program in Region 1 of the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU), this will be

(2021 and 2022) and Ottawa, Canada (2023).

2. WRC-23  Update December 8, 2023

After much discussion, agreement has been reached on the important topic
of interference by Amateurs to the Radio Navigation Satellite Service (RNSS) in the 23
cm band.

The final outcome introduces a new footnote in the Radio Regulations
regarding Amateur and Amateur Satellite Service operation in the 1240-1300 MHz range. This
footnote recognizes that receipt of a report of harmful interference caused by a
station of the Amateur or Amateur-Satellite Services, should be the trigger for
Administrations to invoke the guidance in the most recent version of M.2164.

4.  New Yorkers feel betrayed as police radio dispatches end

For nearly a century, New York City police have communicated about
crime and catastrophe over radio broadcasts on public channels. And for
journalists and the public, these dispatches have been a reliable way to get
real-time knowledge of what’s happening in one of the world’s largest cities.

Now the NYPD is encrypting these channels for the first time in its history
– an upgrade expected be completed by December 2024.

The NYPD’s chief of information technology told the New York City council
last week the move was designed to “stop giving the bad guys our game plan
in terms of how we’re trying to apprehend them”. He also cited ambulance
chasers and unauthorized interruptions as reasons to encrypt.

RAC Canada Winter Contest 2023 Rules: December 30
https://www.rac.ca/rac-canada-winter-contest-2023/Le français suit l'anglais.
Sam Ferris, VE5SF – RAC Canada Winter Contest Manager
In December each year, Radio Amateurs of Canada (RAC) sponsors the Canada Winter Contest. Amateurs all over the world are invited to participate. 

Contest Period: 0000 UTC to 2359 UTC on December 30, 2023. 
Bands and Modes: 160, 80, 40, 20, 15, 10, 6 and 2 metres, CW and phone (SSB, FM, AM, etc.) 
Suggested frequencies: CW – 25 kHz up from the band edge and for SSB – 1850, 3775, 7075*, 7225, 14175, 21250 and 28500 kHz. Check for CW activity on the half-hour. 
*Note: For 7075 kHz please watch for conflicts in the band plan where there are overlaps with other modes of operation.
Exchange: Stations in Canada send RS(T) and province or territory. VEØs and stations outside Canada send RS(T) and a serial number. 
QSOs: Contacts with stations in Canada or VEØs are worth 10 points. Contacts with stations outside Canada are worth 2 points. Contacts with RAC official stations are worth 20 points. 
RAC official stations are: VA2RAC, VA3RAC, VE1RAC, VE4RAC, VE5RAC, VE6RAC, VE7RAC, VE8RAC, VE9RAC, VO1RAC, VO2RAC, VY0RAC, VY1RAC and VY2RAC. 
You may work any station once on each of the two modes, on each of the eight contest bands. It is prohibited to make CW contacts in the conventional phone sub-bands and phone contacts in the conventional CW sub-bands. Contacts or soliciting QSOs through a repeater during the contest period is not allowed. 
Contacts in the RAC Canada Contests also count towards the RAC Canadian Portable Operations Challenge Award. Please see page 62 for information.
Multipliers: Thirteen in total, Canada’s 10 provinces and three territories. Each multiplier may be counted once on each mode on each of the eight contest bands.
The multipliers, with their postal abbreviations and prefixes are: Nova Scotia [NS] (VE1, VA1, CY9, CYØ); Quebec [QC] (VE2, VA2); Ontario [ON] (VE3, VA3); Manitoba [MB] (VE4, VA4); Saskatchewan [SK] (VE5, VA5); Alberta [AB] (VE6, VA6); British Columbia [BC] (VE7, VA7); Northwest Territories [NT] (VE8); New Brunswick [NB] (VE9); Newfoundland and Labrador [NL] (VO1, VO2); Nunavut [NU] (VYØ); Yukon [YT] (VY1); and Prince Edward Island [PE] (VY2). 
Certain special Canadian prefixes in use at the time of the contest may also apply; however, there may be no more than 13 multipliers on each band/mode. Please use the multiplier abbreviations, in square brackets, noted above.
Note: in the event a station is unable to make a contact with a Canadian station, there will be granted a multiplier count of 1 to facilitate the proper calculation of the final score since a multiplier of zero (0) would not create a valid calculation of a final score.
Final Score: The total QSO from all bands multiplied by the total number of multipliers from all bands. 
Special thanks to our sponsors for their support of the RAC contests.
