The resource details specific frequencies and modes for D-STAR (145.590 MHz, 1266.300 MHz voice, 1297.675 MHz data on 23 cm), DMR-Marc (448.525 MHz), DMR-Brandmeister (441.750 MHz), Yaesu Fusion (449.725 MHz), and P-25 Digital (147.315 MHz).

A recent update, dated June 19, 2024, announces the VE2REX analog repeater and Echolink are fully functional again, after resolving issues including a conflicting 100.0 Hz tone, software repairs for Allstar and Echolink, a suspected defective USB port on the Mini PC, and a faulty exciter in the Motorola Quantar repeater. Guy, VE2VMT, was instrumental in troubleshooting these problems. The club, established in 1994, provides a calendar, news, links, and membership information, with Linda Cullen, VE2NJK, serving as president and VA2DBJ as webmaster.
