In memory of Carl Everson VE3BYX who started these listings on behalf of Radio Amateurs of Canada. Carl himself became a Silent Key on March 3, 2000 after a long bout with cancer. He was a tireless volunteer and will be sadly missed.
The Silent Key list now contains over 3500 names of former amateurs, and is too large to post on this web site in a form that you can browse. The complete list is available for downloading below.
Here is a shorter list covering the period from 1926 to 1935.
