Who are we?  We are a group of amateur radio operators with a special interest in the HF bands. Our club is informal and unincorporated. This website as a portal to our activities and interests. We have the club call sign VA7IHF and use it for contests and events like Field Day.

Where are we? IslandHF refers to Vancouver Island which is part of the province of British Columbia on Canada’s west coast. The club began in Victoria (the capital city of BC) and has nearly 100 members spread up and down the Island, on mainland BC, and Ontario and Washington State. Uniquely it has a chapter in Qualicum Beach, which caters to and helps build membership mid-island.

What do we do? HF radio stuff! We like operating, we like contesting, we like building radios, we like digital HF, we like helping new hams and we like learning. The hobby is infinitely interesting. We enjoy meeting for a coffee at the local java joint or for a beer at a nearby pub where we share friendships and rag chew about HF and radios.
