Some of you may know but I thought I would let the rest in on the secret.  There is a new web site devoted to listing of all repeaters in western Canada and north west US.  Please visit http://nwham.com .  We won't be taking down our list of repeaters but will probably link to this site for all the SARA, FARS and Independent repeaters soon.

 

Unless otherwise noted all repeaters are currently operational

146.715 146.115 -600kHz FM VE6RCB 110.9 ENC Carbon, 75 km north-east of Calgary, 35 km west of Drumheller. This repeater is linked with VE6RYC (146.850-) on Nose Hill.
146.760 146.160 -600kHz FM VE6NOV 110.9 ENC Calgary, Rockview Hospital, in the south-west of town. Primarily used for autopatches. (9 plus phone number plus * to call, # to hang up.)
Has an 110.9 Hz CTCSS tone on the output, but doesn't require a tone on the input.
Currently not at Rockeyview and is only periodically available at VE6MX's QTH. Will be back in opertation soon with 110.9 tone. Limited operation.
146.850 146.250 -600kHz FM VE6RYC 110.9 ENC/DEC Calgary. The club's primary repeater. NO AUTOPATCH available!
Located on Nose Hill Park in the north centre of town. Has excellent long range coverage, covering as far west as the Banff Park gates, east to Strathmore, south to Nanton, north past Airdre. It doesn't do so well to the north and northwest due to shadowing by Nose Hill.
It has a 110.9 Hz tone on both the input and output. You need this tone to access the repeater.
147.060 146.460 -600kHz FM VE6AUY 110.9 ENC Wildcat Hills, 30 km west of Calgary on Highway 1. Good coverage on Highway 1 from Calgary west into the mountains. (Note: Auto offset will give this frequency a "+".) Operational.
147.120 147.720 +600kHz FM VE6AQA 110.9 ENC Fortress Mountain, Kananaskis Country. Covers Highway 40 (about 60 km west of Calgary) from Highway 1 south about 60 km down to Highwood Pass. Many public events take place along Hwy 40, and this repeater is used by CARA to provide the control and safety communications. Other than that, it isn't used a lot. We hope to link it in to VE6RYC in Calgary to make it more useful in case of emergencies. The repeater is on top of the mountain at the Fortress ski resort.
147.180 147.780 +600kHz FM VE6REC 110.9 ENC Calgary, west side. Good coverage in the central, western and south-central areas.
