VE3RMU digi is located on Prairie Mobile Communications 200' tower.  9 miles north of Nester Falls, Ontario on HWY 71 at an elevation of 1370' above sea level.

VE3RMU was re-installed as a APRS Digi in July-August 2004.

The antenna installation was done on July 31st. VA3EXT (myself) did the climb and ground crew consisted of Gary (VE3MOR), Bob (VA3UDP), Dick (VA3DIK), Joe (VE3EEX), and Leland (KC0IGT). We where attending the annual Camp 807 in Sioux Narrows and drove down to install the antenna.

The digi is consists of a 40 watt GE Mastr Exec II rack mount, Hamtronics LNG-144 pre-amp, MFJ-1270b TNC (rear),  1/2" heliax and an SRL-222 at 130'.
