Canadian Amateurs Invited to Participate in Solar Eclipse Project

While  most special event stations are not posted here the RCAF play a vital role in search and rescue and in times other crisis or serious events.  They are our partners and we should make every effort to recognize them

The event is the 100^th year of the RCAF in Canada and Amateur radio will be on the air across the country with their own rcaf call.  The Surrey Amateur Radio Communications are the holders of VE7RCAF

  Hopefully we will be able to get many stations on the air for this event as it is an opportunity to recognize the services of our troops. To request an operating slot they just need to need to send an email to ve7rcaf@gmail.com
