The Covey Hill Amateur Radio Club operates a 146.685 MHz analog repeater with an 88.5 Hz PL tone, alongside several digital repeaters. 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). It also lists Echolink node 595040 (VE2REX-R) as an access point for the club's network. 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.

The HF Beacon Tracker is an advanced interactive tool designed for DXers and ham radio opoerators in general to monitor active beacons operating below 14 MHz. Built upon a high-fidelity 3D Earth globe, the application provides a spatial perspective on signal paths by integrating real-time environmental data with a comprehensive beacon database curated by Mirek OK1DUB. Beacons are plotted using precise Maidenhead locators and feature a real-time day/night terminator overlay to help operators identify Gray Line propagation opportunities. With a single click, users can calculate the exact distance from their own QTH to any beacon, visualized via an animated Great-Circle Path arc on the globe surface. To enhance its diagnostic capabilities, the tool seamlessly integrates with PSK Reporter, allowing users to right-click CW beacons to instantly fetch current reception reports and signal strength data. The interface is fully optimized with a mobile-responsive design, smooth globe rotation, and togglable Dark/Light themes suitable for any shack environment. Whether you are performing antenna gain tests, conducting ionospheric research, or simply hunting for band openings, the HF Beacon Tracker transforms raw database information into an intuitive, visual diagnostic suite. It serves as an essential asset for any operator looking to master HF band conditions.
