British Columbia Frequency Modulation Communications Association


VE7LAN 145.070 MHz (+600 kHz)


This machine is dedicated for use as a packet repeater for the Lower Mainland. Its operation is a joint project between BCFMCA and the Vancouver Area Packet Organization (VAPO).

LAN got a face lift in the spring of 1997 with the replacement of the old GE Master II RF deck with a much newer Motorola Micor. It is a unified chassis base station with a power amplifier capable of 100W continuous (currently set to a respectable 10W).

This repeater also runs off the DC battery plant for continuous operation.
