Let's Get Real About Emergency Communications
#7
In addition to the portable repeater, the club also owns VE3OST 146.895-. This repeater is a Motorola MSF5000, and 2 port controller with uhf link capability. The repeater includes a set of Varden cavities and battery backup. Similar to VE3GBT in Paisley. It was at the qth of Tom TVA for a while however the antenna there and feedline needs some TLC. It didn't turn out to be a very effective location anyway as it didn't cover Meaford well. This is at the qth of Tom VA3TS.

Finally, the club has a spare MTR2000 VHF 100 watt repeater, this is exactly the same as the one at VE3OSR. This is the repeater only, no external controller or link capability. This is at the qth of Frank GUF.

The club also has a portable HF antenna, 2 sections of tower that can be assembled and place almost anywhere, includes a tri-band beam and rotor and control. This is at the qth of Tom VA3TS.

There are other pockets of other club owned equipment with Bernie BQM, Tom TVA and Frank GUF, there may be an inventory.

We also have advertising supplies like portable sandwich board signs (8), magnetic signs for vehicles (?), and high visibility vests, (but I don't know where the vest are or how many we have).
