The Club station operates from  the Myrick Wireless Interpretation Centre at Cape Race, NF.  The Centre is a replica of the Marconi Station that went on the air n Nov. 17th, 1904.  It is the site where Cape Race received all the Distress Traffic from the RMS Titanic on April 14th, l912, Cape Race let the rest of the world know through the  Underwater Cable Systems that connected North America  via Cape Ray, NL and to Europe via Hearts Content NL.  Contrary to  some local  opinion, Admiralty House in St John's didn't  play any part in the Titanic Disaster.  It wasn't built until 1914, some two years  after The Titanic sank.  The call sign of our station is VO1MCE (MCE was the call sign of Cape Race Radio from 1904 until 1913 when  it was changed to VCE, which was in use until 1967).
We invite all Amateur,and  professional   radio operators to come and visit us  at Cape Race in 2012, with ongoing  events to commemorate the 100th anniversary of The Titanic Disaster.
