-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Gang, FYI: I thought some of you might be interested in this meeting regarding GNU Radio. I think I'm going to attend, but admittedly its a lot closer to my house than it probably is to yours.

Troxel, N1DAM, who is a network researcher at BBN Technologies working on software radios for the Department of Defense. Greg will give an overview of software-defined radio, a new technology that is already changing Ham Radio, and will talk about a free software radio package called GNU Radio. Greg will also describe a hardware front-end for software radios, the USRP, that uses daughter-boards for various functions, from transceivers for 440, 902, 1296 and 2400 MHz to boards for IF use. Greg's talk will highlight the challenges in changing GNU Radio from receiving continuous signals to packet radio. Following the talk, Greg will demonstrate GNU Radio and the USRP with several daughter-boards. Unfortunately, I will be unable to join you, but hope for a good attendance. As a result of generous donations over the past month, our treasury now stands at $2194.28. 73, Gordon Pettengill W1OUN - -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
