CF3VEDAY VOICE OPERATIONS FROM ORILLIA, ONTARIO

Coordinated voice operations will take place ONLY May 5 to 12 inclusive (GMT) from the QTH of VE3BDB, Orillia, Ontario, using the CF3VEDAY special event call sign and primarily (but not exclusively) voice modes on selected bands during the authorization period.  See SSB Sked for bands and times of operations from Orillia and check the CF3VEDAY website often for updated information.  

Radio Amateurs of Canada HF Band Plans, found at http://www.rac.ca/service/hfband.htm, will be observed in regard to modes.  Please don't ask us to deviate from those Plans.  Hours and bands of operation will be determined by propagation conditions and the availability of operators.  As possible, up-dates will be provided on this website as to frequencies and times.   Watch for "FLASH" announcements on the home page of CF3VEDAY.

"...Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old." --  Winston Churchill,  June 4, 1940,  House of Commons
