Welcome to the Telephone Pioneers Amateur Radio Club!
TPARC operates and maintains a HF/VHF/UHF ROSE switched packet amateur radio network in British Columbia that extends from the capital city of Victoria, through the Lower Mainland, up into the interior to Kamloops, and over to the North Okanagan at Vernon.
In the Lower Mainland, TPARC also operates a VHF and UHF linked voice repeater system on 145.170MHz (-600kHz) and 442.875MHz (+5MHz).
Please see the links at the left for more information.
Celebrate BC 150!
In honour of British Columbia's 150th Birthday, Industry Canada has authorized a special event prefix to be used from October 1, 2008 to November 30, 2008.
During this period of time, VE7 operators can use the prefix CK7, VA7 operators can use the prefix CJ7. For operators in the Yukon, V0 calls can use the prefix CY; VY calls can use the prefix CZ.
For more information, see http://www.hambc150.info/ and http://www.callsign.ca/indsp.php.
Network Outage Alert
Presently, the UHF trunk network is partitioned. The UHF links at Promontory, facing Hope and Kamloops are out of service.
We are aware of the problem, and are working to restore them to service as soon as possible. We are also working on a backup solution to be able to re-connect the network segments until the UHF trunks can be repaired.
Further updates will be posted, when available.
Thank you for visiting!
