Please advise. Thank you.

Let me know.

Robin/Ralph, what a coincidence that both of you would post almost the same message word for word within 3 minutes of each other on here and Scanont? Almost makes me wonder if you are the same person? You both seem to also share the same IP address. Another coincidence?

Amateurs in Canada are permitted to use 219-225Mhz.

There are other users but I don't think you'll find much activity in Ontario.
