are aU the YL's points of view?Personally, I feel that the club

newsletter cou Id be produced in anelectronic magazine format anddistributed via packet radio, theTnternet and other local BBSs.Amateur radio clubs from around theworld could exchange newslettersand information in this manner.Only those members who don't havea computer and modem should needa printed copy of HI-Q. Let's save afew trees for the next generation anda few dollars for this one. I'm tryingout NeoBook™ Professional-it'sfantastic! Sound, animation, full·colour graphics and GUI-it runs inDOS to boot! No Windows95™ orfancy hardware required!

r want to keep the club newsletterentertaining and informative. Itrequires a contribution from everyonewho receives a copy. With voice mailon VE3TBR you can leave me mailmessages anytime (i.d. # 159).

Now, what do you think?-Ed.

T can't bebeve just how fast thissummer has gone by! The biggestsummer event, for the club, was the2 week visit by the Trkutsk ARCamateurs. I'm looking forward to thewritten submissions from all clubmembers who met with them andtheir XYLs. Pat, VA3GD and Jim,VE3UA should be congratulated forthe hard work and long hours thatthey put into getting the Irkutskgroup here.

FIRST, EVERYONE PLEASENOTE THAT THE CL UB HAS ANEW MAILING ADDRESS. SEEPAGE THREE.

Second, don't forget that we dohave VE3TBR for local QSOs andphone calls. Let's put the voice mailto good use on VE3TBR, too.

Third, the annual club dues are dueagain and the election of newexecutive officers will be held inSeptember. Hint, hint.

Repeater Etiquette byEd,VE3SNW

Welcome to the Thunder BayRepeater community! With classesover there are new callsigns on theair and we are glad to have youonline. Like any "society" certainnorms have evolved over the yearsand some of these quirks you may beunaware of. Tn order to correct this Thereby present: VE3SNW's Bible ofRepeater Etiquette.

1) Listen fIrst! This will accomplishmany things. You will pick up on ourquirks and learn a few things aboutus and you won't bust into someone'sQSO or emergency in progress.

2) Push the PIT button first, thenspeak. The fLrst cou)lle of times onthe air are pretty exciting. It'scommon for newbies to talk and hitthe switch at the same time. Theresult is that we hear about half ofwhat you wanted to say. Now, let goof the PTI so you can hear just howeJoquent I really can be.

3) Pause between groups of speechand wait for the courtesy beep. Whenyou tad-end your buddy on the air,people who need to break in withemergency or urgent traffic can't. Ifyou have been talking for a longtime, ask if anyone requires therepeater. Note: Skip, VE3BBS is theAmateur Radio Emergency ServiceCoordinator (ARES) and is the one tocontact if the ARES net requiresactivation. Or, he will announce anemergency and activate the net. Inwhich case go to rule one. ContactSkip about details of ARES.

4) Tdentify with your whole caLIsign. This is the law (check RIC 25 ifyou don't believe me). It's also a badhabit to get into and really irritatesthe DX stations on HF.

5) Ye aide Phone Patch and otherRepeater Esoterica. Listen first.Identify before calling and duringthe phone call, if the other party putsthe phone down for a second and oncompletion. This also goes for usingthe message functions and testing. Ifyou are testing or just learning howto use the toys, er functions, say so.

HI-Q • September 1995

If you are playing, I mean testing,listen and identify. PauseoccasionaJJy in case someone needsthe repeater. Pick an off-time to tryout the functions. Ten minutesbefore lunch is not a good time totest the DTMF tones on yourmicrophone.If you are on the patch, make it

clear to the person on the other endof the phone line that you are usingamateur radio and a gazillion otherpeople are Ii tening. Don't use thepatch if there is a regular phoneavailable.

Business calls are not permittedunder any circulllst.ances. Don't beshy about dumping the patch if theperson you are talking to becomesrude or abusive. If you don't,someone else probably willi Foullanguage is not permitted over theair.

6) The use of the word "break" tointerrupt a QSO in progress isreserved for emergency or urgentsituations only and its use as ageneral interrupt is notappropriate. Th is and othercarryovers from C.B. radio willlabel you as a lid (inept radiooperator) by the older operators.They are the ones who paid for andassembled the repeaters, sohumour them!

7) Be courteous and helpful. Ifsomeone needs the repeater brieny,relinquish it. Tf someone needs helpor information do your best to help.If you hear help in progress, stayquiet unless you can add somethingtruly useful. If you are called andcan't help, do your best to handthem off to someone who can or atleast direct them to where they canfLnd the info they are looking for.

8)· Be polite and don't criticizeover the air. Snide comments willlabel you. Be careful what you sayunless you enjoy listening to weirdrumours about yourself.

9) We do have more than onerepeater. VE3TBR is on 146.82(-)

Lakehead Amateur Radio Club

and is usually very quiet and in towncoverage is pretty good even withhandhelds. Or, try simplex; there isno law that says you must alwaysuse a repeater on VHF.

10) Expand your horizons.Discover new modes of operation(EME, Meteor Scatter, Packet,RTTY, CW) Amateur Radio hasmuch to offer, don't deprive yourselfby just sitting on the repeaters.

11) If you use your radio as ascanner, do not program the offsetsor PL tones for non-amateurfrequencies, just in case you key upon the wrong memory channel.Businesses and Police agencies pay alot of money for their licences andtake them very seriously. Yourpresence will not be a source ofamusement to either them orIndustry Canada.

12) Use the amateur frequencies toreport emergencies. With the phonepatch there should be no reason to~unlawfully transmit on a business orpolice/ambu lance frequency. Ifcircumstances dictate the unlawfuluse of a commercial frequency, thethought in the back of your mindshould be "How am I going to explainthis to the judge?"

13) Ask questions. We weren't allborn rocket scientists (exceptVE3BCD). We all learned just likeyou are now. A simple question is alot better than an expensive mistake.

14) Club repeaters are open to allamateurs. They are, however,expensive and complex. If you usethem I think that there is a moralobligation to support theirdevelopment by paying club dues,donating to the funds andvolunteering for club or ARESevents. With freedom, comesresponsibility.

15) To some, Amateur Radio is ahobby, to others it's a calling andothers a vocation. Be tolerant andforgiving. Not everyone on the ~repeater will be as well behaved andintelligent as you and II

Cantp 807-'An XYL's Prospective by Linda, VE3XLB

Everyone has heard of Camp 807.During June and July, each year, themen start inquiring about where it isgoing to be held and in some casesmaking plans to attend. Women, youmay be asking yourself the samething that) asked Norman a fewyears ago, when we attended ourfirst camp-"What do the womendo?" Well, I thought that 1would giveyou my prospective of it.

This year, it was held at a privatecampground, in Fort Francis, fromAugust 4th to the 6th. We started outat I p. m. on Friday and arrived 4hours later. As we came down a hill,we saw a campground sign andNorman thought that it was theplace. As we passed the sign we sawa lot of vehicles with antennas. Asure sign that it was the right place!We checked into our hotel on theother side of town and had supper.Afterwards, we went back to thecampground to see who was there.Some people only came for Saturday.

Now for the question-What do thewomen do? The same as themen-mingle' Mingling with peoplethat I don't know is not one of mystrong points but everyone was sofriendly. They made you feel right athome and included you in. I metsome that had checked into thenorthwestern Ontario Net with meon Tuesdays, so I can now put facesto the callsigns. It's great meeting

people in person whom you havetalked to on the air. They refer toAnnabelle, VE3XAW and myself asthe "Velvet Tones of Thunder Bay."1 saw a few women sitting at acampsite and recognized a couple ofthem. So, 1 went over andintroduced myself to them. Not longafter, Norman and some of theother men went to the nextcampsite and talked aboutwhatever it is men that talk aboutat a hamfest. The women went to adining tent and talked about avariety of things. Only one of themwasn't a ham! The next thing Iknew, Norman came over and saidthat it was 10:30 p.m. and that wehad better head for the hotel.

Saturday morning, afterbreakfast, we headed back to thecampground. A lot of people hadjust arrived and were setting uptables to display their items forsale. You see, they bring their"junk" to sell so they can buysomeone else's "junk." I walkedaround with Norman for awhilelooking at the "stufl" on display atthe different tables. I then went onto find some of the women.

At noon, a group of us left to takein an airshow at the Fort Francisairport. Norman and I found ashady spot and setup our lawnchairs. Before the airshow began,the operators of remote controlled

aircraft put on quite ademonstration. The airshow wassuper, too! When it was over, weheaded back to the campground forsupper. Barbeques and tables wereset in a field by the campsites and thebarbeques were starting to heat up.You've probably heard Normantalking about the steaks they cooked.Without exaggeration, you neededtwo plates. One for the steak andanother for the baked potato, bun,vegetables, variety of salads anddesserts that the Fort Franciswomen prepared.

After supper, while everyone wassitting around, some of the "junk"that was not sold at the ham fest wasauctioned off ala Woody, VE3JJAstyle. Jt is something that you haveto experience to believe! We stayedfor awhile longer and then went backto the hotel.

On Sunday morning, we went backto the campground for coffee anddonuts (what else') said our good·byes to our old and new friends andheaded back to Thunder Bay.Another hamfest was over and planswere being made for next year. Itwould be nice to have a largerrepresentation from Thunder Bay.Why not plan to keep the longweekend of August free for next yearand attend Camp 807? Bring yourXYLs or OMs along. I'm sure thatthey will enjoy it as much as Tdid!
