The Seaway Valley Amateur Radio Club operates eight repeaters in Cornwall and area.  VE3SVC is a VHF  repeater operating on 147.180 + and a CTCSS tone of 110.9 Hz.  Also on VHF is VA3SDG repeater on 145.570 and a CTCSS tone of 110.9 Hz. Both repeaters are Yaesu Fusion digital C4FM and Analog FM, with permanent connectivity to the Yaesu Fusion network on 145.570. On UHF, VA3EDG 442.100 (CC1), a Motorola XPR-8400 MotoTrbo repeater connects to the Brandmeister DMR network. VE3PGC 443.650 + (110.9), now also a Yaesu C4FM digital / FM analog repeater, with wider area coverage and Allstar Net and EchoLink connectivity, is located near Bonville.  For other repeaters, nine in all including APRS and 224 MHz., see the Repeater Page.
