Hi!
I leave for Vancouver tomorrow, and will spend the next few days up there. While I am there, I hope to be able to work some satellite passes on the FM birds and maybe AO-16 from CN89 and possibly from Whistler in CO80. This trip will not be primarily a radio trip, so I do not know how active I will be over the next few days. I will use the callsign CJ7EWK for any satellite operating.
My Canadian call is VA7EWK, but I will use the CJ prefix instead of VA for any satellite operating I do. CJ is one of the special prefixes authorized for Canadian amateur operators by Industry Canada during October and November 2008 to commemorate the 150th aniversary of the founding of the Crown Colony of British Columbia.
I will send QSL cards to any stations that make contacts with CJ7EWK during this trip. If you wish to send a QSL card for CJ7EWK, please send them via WD9EWK. 73!
