Proudly\, our volunteer crew from Friends of HMCS HAIDA (FOH) i s gearing up to showcase a living piece of naval history\, where past and present converge in every radio contact. Parks Canada has generously grant ed us permission to operate an amateur radio station in Radio Room 2 aboar d HMCS HAIDA\, ensuring that our activation remains authentic and respectf ul of the vessel’s storied past.\n\nA Nostalgic Radio Resurrection\n\nFo r those who cherish the crossroads of history and technology\, this event offers a rare and mesmerizing glimpse into the past. In the early 1960s\, when HMCS HAIDA’s amateur radio station operated under the historic call sign VE0NV\, it functioned much like the “Internet of the 1960s.” Bac k then\, amateur radio was the vital connection that allowed sailors on de ployment to reach out to family members across the globe an indispensable lifeline in a pre-digital era. In keeping with common Royal Canadian Navy practice\, many of our navy ships using a VE0 prefix call sign reached out to the world on the amateur bands. Al Goodwin\, who served aboard HAIDA a s the POTEL (senior radio operator) from May 1960 until the ship was paid off in October 1963\, fondly recalls those vibrant days. He remembers\, fo r instance\, operating VE0NV from early 1962 with up to five operators on duty a record staffing that brought in a flood of worldwide contacts. Reme mbering this period was during the tense days of the Cold War\, one unforg ettable moment was when the Commanding Officer\, marveling at the QSL card s proudly displayed in Radio 1\, noticing a QSL card from Russia once quer ied\, “What would you talk to him about?” to which Al replied\, “Cry pto codes of course\,”\n\nHonoring a Historic Legacy\n\nToday\, as moder n equipment stands side by side with time-tested techniques\, HMCS HAIDA ’s amateur radio activation for Museum Ships On-The-Air Weekend is a tri bute to that pioneering spirit. By revisiting the golden era of VE0NV\, we celebrate not only a historical milestone in naval communications but als o the enduring legacy of connecting people across vast distances decades b efore email or cell phones transformed our world.\n\nBringing Radio Room 2 to Life\n\nUnder the guidance of Rick Bialachowski and Chris Cuthbert Rad io Room 2 is buzzing with preparations. Utilizing the decades-old dipole a ntenna alongside the forward starboard whip antenna\, our early low-power tests reached across the Atlantic. This rigorous pre-event setup not only pays homage to HAIDA’s technical heritage but also lays the groundwork f or an exhilarating on-the-air weekend.\n\nHMCS HAIDA’s Museum Ships On-t he-Air Call Sign\n\nHMCS HAIDA will be using VE0NV as its call sign duri ng the Museum Ships On-The-Air Weekend.\n\nWhat to Expect\n\nJoin us from 10am to 5pm on both Saturday and Sunday as we broadcast from Radio Room 2. Over 100 museum ships from all over the world registered for the event th is year! Over approximately three hours each day\, our licensed amateur ra dio operators will make radio contacts with fellow amateur radio enthusias ts from museum ships around the globe\, reconnecting historical traditions with modern excitement. Find HMCS HAIDA in the list of participating ship s and the radio frequencies for the event at: https://www.nj2bb.org/museum \n\nJoin Us on This Voyage\n\nMuseum Ships On-The-Air Weekend is far more than a contest\, it’s an immersive\, educational celebration of our shar ed heritage. With the dedicated efforts of FOH volunteers\, expert operato rs\, and invaluable support from Parks Canada\, HMCS HAIDA’s radio room transforms into a beacon of history and technology. We warmly invite radio enthusiasts\, history buffs\, and curious visitors to join us on board or on the air as we honor the pioneering spirit of maritime adventure and co mmunication.\n\n73\, and see you on the air!\n\n\n\n\n\n LOCATION:HMCS Haida National Historic Site\, 658 Catharine St N\, Hamilton\ , Ontario\, L8L 8K4\, Canada X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=658 Catharine St N\, Hamilt on\, Ontario\, L8L 8K4\, Canada;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=HMCS Haida Nati onal Historic Site:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Toronto X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Toronto BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20220313T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
