Establishing a robust, interconnected communication infrastructure across challenging terrain, the Island Trunk System (ITS) provides a network of open amateur radio repeaters for general and emergency communications throughout Vancouver Island, surrounding waters, and parts of the lower mainland on the West Coast of British Columbia, Canada. This system, largely off-grid, relies on solar power and batteries, necessitating careful operation, especially during night hours and low solar charging seasons, to preserve its energy resources. Maintaining the ITS involves significant effort from many hams, who appreciate adherence to regulations, including proper station identification. The system hosts a weekly social net every Monday evening at 8 PM, welcoming all participants, and also supports a Vancouver Island Region Emergency Radio Net each Wednesday at 19:15. Experimental projects like the Newcastle Ridge webcams, linked via 5.8 GHz broadband backhaul over 206 km to Nanaimo and Comox, demonstrate the innovative spirit within the ITS community. A new VHF repeater, operating on 146.880 MHz with a 141.3 Hz PL tone, was installed in Tofino, expanding system coverage.

Demonstrates the online presence of the West Island Amateur Radio Club (WIARC), a Canadian amateur radio organization. The resource presents fundamental club information, including contact details via an "info" email address. It also indicates the club's location within Quebec, Canada, and its focus on **ham radio** activities. The site's technical implementation notes its creation with **Arachnophilia 4.0**, a specific HTML editor. This resource, while minimal in content, serves as a digital point of contact for the WIARC. It confirms the club's existence and provides a channel for inquiries, which is typical for many local amateur radio clubs. The mention of a frame-compliant browser suggests an older web design, common for sites maintained over several years.
