Oct 2020 October 2020 W0TLM Club Meeting Presentation - Shack on a Pi

Loren, KE0HZ and Barry, KD0RQU, present on two Ham Radio based linux builds for the Raspberry Pi.  The two builds HamPi and Build a PI are built by fellow ham radio operators and provide a consolidated package of some of the most popular linux based ham radio software, everything from rig control like FLDIGI to APRS.  Join them for a quick run down on the packages, features and benefits.

Sep 2020 W0TLM September 2020 Club Meeting - VHF/UHF digital modes

Tim K4RA presents VHF/UHF digital modes. This presentation covers the basics of D-STAR, DMR, and C4FM/System Fusion. It's a broad overview (i.e., an inch deep and a mile wide) discussing the pluses and minuses of each format without getting into the weeds of how to program the different types of radios (each is different). He also explains how we connect the different digital formats together with a Mega site and how hot spots are used. This presentation helps members evaluate which digital radio will help them get on the air.

Jul 2020 W0TLM July 2020 Club Meeting: Ham Shack tools - K0CHP

Our Very Own Chip Fleming presents a 'recommended' tool kit that is beneficial for every HAM, new or old. This is the kind of stuff Chip likes and is well versed in--he is always looking for a new gadget, so he knows his stuff.

This is a practical guide for any level of HAM, with advice on what to buy, where to buy it, and what to expect to pay for it.

May 2020 W0TLM May 2020 Club Meeting - HAM Radio Science Citizen Investigation.

Loren (KEØHZ) presents "HamSci". Which stands for "HAM Radio Science Citizen Investigation." Hear how amateur radio operators are supporting scientific endeavors by participating in HamSCI. Ham’s are uniquely capable of providing and, in some cases, analyzing data in support of academic research underway to help characterize and predict something near and dear to any Ham – radio propagation.
