[Bitx-20] special session at hamfests to teach the neophytes re latest firmware
|
David Wilcox
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýYou gentlemen seem to have such a great time discussing all of these changes and ?what should/could be a standard load from the start. ?I have been studying my Arduino starter kit and one of Jacks books but still have a long way to go. Possibly next year at FDIM and at Hamcation, Hamvention and even Ozarkon one or two of you could put on a seminar about this issue and maybe even help some of us upgrade our rigs (both of them) in a special session. ?We would bring our radios, laptops if necessary, etc., and go step by step installing the latest code and then have an explanation on how to make it work. ?I would even pay a fee for such a class. ?It could be like in my past medical conferences where it was early in the morning before the rest of the session started or during the afternoon when the rest are out seeing the sights. ?These sessions were called "special interest groups". I just need to see someone do it the first time (load in new code) with a step by step explanation and then the light might go on. Is something like this possible? Dave K8WPE,_._,_

If there's a local makerspace handy, I suggest you lug a laptop and a Raduino (or Nano) in and ask if somebody can help you load some firmware.? Or a local ham club meeting.? Arduino's are very popular,? ?having an impact far beyond ham radio.? Here's an old post about maker spaces:

I'd actually enjoy that. Talk with the FDIM people to see if they have any interest. Preston Douglas (pdouglas12@...) is the President of the group and would likely be the one to contact. However, I would NOT do it now, as FDIM starts in two days and I would imagine he's buried in details right now and would likely say No to anything right now! A week from now might give him enough time to unwind from the conference.

I'll be in Europe at that time. Sorry I'll miss it, as I've heard it's a good convention.
