HAM Radio Operators Want Exemption
With the possibility of new provincial legislation banning the use of communication devices while driving, HAM radio operators are looking for an exemption.
Director of EMO for Quispamsis Brian Shanks tells CHSJ News a lot of operators are well-trained when using the system in the vehicle.
He says HAM radio operators play an integral role during emergency situations and he fears the legislation will reduce the number of enthusiasts.

Harbour Passage Open Again

Harbour Passage will close again this spring when construction on the bridge resumes.
