Resource Road Radio Communication

On September 5, 2019 Mark Spencer VE7AFZ talked about radio communication on resource roads.

British Columbia is home to more than 650,000 kilometres of off-highway roads that are used by various resource industry stakeholders, as well as by the public, to access rural and remote areas. These roads are known as resource roads, many of which are narrow, single-lane passages that cover treacherous terrain. Many of these resource roads are assigned a communications radio channel that serves as a lifeline for users in trouble and helps to coordinate safe traffic flow.
