BASE: To Be Determined

by Steering Committee.

MAIN: Amateur Radio and Open Source Software

by Kyle Krieg

Open source is alive and well in the Amateur Radio community. Many Amateur Radio operators have designed and maintain open source projects that run on both the PC and Linux platforms to help hobbyists make contacts around the world with their radios. In the presentation we will explore what is Amateur Radio, how to get into the hobby and some of the open source software applications one can use to get on the air and make contacts. If you have your Amateur Radio license, we'd love to see you! If you are new to Amateur Radio or have any interest in the hobby, come to the meeting and get more info!

Monthly Meetings

We open the room for the general meeting about 6:00 PM.

Then we start at 6:30 PM with our BASE introductory level session (usually focused on personal computing); which may include either amazing graphical packages, blinking lights, command line wonders, demonstrations of useful applications, displays of newly discovered web sites, major resolution of long standing anomalies, quantum discoveries, smoke and mirrors, superb tutorials, or shifts in both time and space.

Sometime after 7:00 PM we attempt a quick welcome, introductions, announcements, current events of interest, and a general CALL FOR HELP (Questions and Answers) segment.

Sometime after 7:30 PM, we may take a short break before our MAIN topic (usually focused on enterprise computing),

All of our meetings are free and open to the public. There is no individual membership fee.
