Calgary NET 134
is the geographical network of FidoNet that presently
services the Southern Alberta area. This area is loosely defined as
being that region of Alberta extending from Ponoka/Red Deer in the north
to a midway point between Calgary and Lethbridge to the south.
Lethbridge in the south. This geographic region *is* loosely defined since
other nets may, at any time,
be established within this general
region due to long distance boundaries and telco restrictions (in fact,
until only recently, Red Deer had it's own Net 3417 designation until
that net closed in mid-1997).

Calgary NET 134 was established in the mid-1980's, and is at least 21 years old as of this writing (2008). While the number of active nodes participating in Net 134 has varied over the years, CALGARY NET 134 has kept an active presence in FidoNet for the province of Alberta, and is the oldest network of FidoNet in this province (it was the first net designated for Alberta).
