What started as The Western Quebec VHF/UHF Amateur Radio Club is located on Mount Rigaud about 30 miles west of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. <br /> <br />We operate 3 FM repeaters, namely 147.00 MHz(-.6 offset), 224.980MHz(-1.6 offset), 442.250MHz(D-Star +5 offset), on emergency power. <br /> <br />Originally founded in 1967 as "The Western Quebec VHF/UHF Amateur Club" (a name still used), our Club was incorporated in 1969. <br /> <br />The VE2RM Club is very unique in that it owns its own property, buildings, and tower. The site is located near the crest of Rigaud Mountain at about 725 ft. ASL. The club owns three lots with a total area of approximately 55 000 sq. ft. <br /> <br />The main building, measuring 16 X 25 ft houses the club's repeater equipment in one room and a storage area in the other. The storage area was originally intended for contest operations and small social gatherings. <br /> <br />Repeater Site on Mount Rigaud Quebec <br /> <br /> LAT: 045 27’ 08” N <br /> <br /> LONG: 074 17’ 52” W <br /> <br /> Tower base is at 700’ ASL and 130’ Tower <br /> <br /> <br />
