Maple Ridge Amateur Radio Club

You are now hearing our new repeater. Marty, VE7XX, got some good video of installing the new antenna, and of Nick, VE7TE, turning on and tweaking the repeater itself.

Early reports indicate much improved coverage over the lower mainland of British Columbia.

Congratulations are to go to Nick (VE7TE), committee chairperson, Marty (VE7XX), Eric (VE7EW), Earl (VE7QJ)  and Graham (VE7WGJ) club liaison with the Maple Ridge Fire Department that brought this project in collaboration with the Maple Ridge Fire Department to a successful completion.

A job well done.

The Breakfast Club is a gathering place where one can visit with old friends and share conversation over a hot cup of coffee. A quick hot breakfast is served before the swap meet opens. An ideal place to eat and relax after setting your table and before the swap meet begins.

We had a very successful swap meet. The 38 vendor’s tables were sold out. By the smiles on people’s faces, and the humm of excites rising from the all enjoyed themselves. Judging by the arm loads of goodies leaving, the vendors also did well. A few candid photos from the swap meet floor follow.
