Luncheon at the Cobblestone Pub

September 17, 2023/0 Comments/in Uncategorized/by Glenn Lindsey VA7HC

The Saturday luncheon at the Cobblestone Pub was a great success. Nine IslandHF radio amateurs from Qualicum Beach, Duncan, Langford, the Malahat and Victoria spent two hours chatting, eating, drinking and laughing.

Some new initiatives for our club were proposed. One, in particular, is very exciting. We can’t tell you about it right yet but it will require lots of help from club members. A working committee has been struck and will be led by the Qualicum Beach team with John MacFarlane VA7PX and John Eyre VE7JEY leading the initiative. More news to come in October.

I’d like to invite other members of IslandHF to initiate the idea of creating your own team. A team of two counts! Share ideas and bring them forth to the whole club.

Nine IslandHF members enjoyed a club breakfast on Sunday August 20th. While eating eggs and drinking coffee/tea everyone shared HF info: antennas, radios, new projects and advice. It was a great deal of fun. Check the website for future breakfast happenings.

Floating wire antennas

August 14, 2023/0 Comments/in Uncategorized/by Glenn Lindsey VA7HC

Pierre Boucher VE7NRO contacted IslandHF telling us of an interesting article on floating wire antennas. These LF antennas were for submarines and not your lowly radio amateur. Not HF but fascinating nonetheless.

Check out this link on floating wire antennas.
