VE7TEL 145.170MHz (-600kHz)/442.875MHz (+5MHz)
The VE7TEL voice repeaters were acquired from the Telephone Pioneers Amateur Radio Club (TPARC) in February 2025. They are located in the TELUS Central Office at the corner of Kingsway and Boundary Road, on the Burnaby/Vancouver border.
The VHF repeater uses an ICOM IC-FR5000, running at 50W. It is on the Allstar Network as Node 521800.
The UHF repeater uses a Yaesu DR-1X, running in analog mode, at 25W. It is on the Allstar Network as Node 521801.
Both repeaters are connected to a Sinclair "Combi" antenna at the top of the tower that is effectively a 2-bay folded dipole on both VHF and UHF.
