Talk:HamRadio

Saturday 17 October 2020, 20:00 UTC
After some technical difficulties with Big Blue Button, we moved to Zoom and succeeded in doing the planned agenda:


 * Brief walk-through of Simulation example: FSK


 * Presentation of gr-RTTY-basics package

https://github.com/duggabe/gr-RTTY-basics https://github.com/duggabe/gr-webserver


 * Audio loopback demo
 * Live Over-the-Air demo

The time (20:00 UTC) proved to be too late for participants East of Greenwich, so an earlier one was scheduled for 7 November.

Saturday 7 November 16:00 UTC
The meeting followed the agenda above. There was a minor audio difficulty with the loopback, but I proceeded to present the Over-the-Air demo successfully.
