Good evening all
My name is Steve, VE7CBH. I have been lurking on this list for some time now waiting for the right opportunity to further things along. What I was waiting for was the link from Mt Brenton VE7RNA repeater site just west of Chemainus BC to the BCWARN system. That link has now been commissioned. https://www.bcwarn.net/intermapper/rf-map.html
Mt Brenton is at 4000 feet, and has a shot into WA. Haystack @ ~140KM is a possibility. Is there any interest to pursue this link?

Hi Steve, I wasn't sure what this had to do with Larch Mountain, so I changed the subject. I hope you don't mind. 140 km would be quite the shot for 5 GHz! We are planning to install at Lookout Mountain very soon. That shot would only be 112 km--a lot, but a little more realistic. Let's see if we can pull that off. Are you active with BCWARN? What sort of peering arrangement is desired with HamWAN? It would be nice for our respective EOCs to be able to communicate via the microwave path. Tom KD7LXL
