Ubuntu and Amateur (Ham) Radio

Steve Conklin AI4QR, and Kamal Mostafa KA6MAL

Curious about what you can do with Amateur Radio and Ubuntu?
Curious about Amateur Radio in general?

Steve and Kamal will take questions and do their best to answer them.

Amateur Radio is a hobby and a public service enjoyed by at least a
million people around the world. Whether you are interested in
transmitting and receiving radio signals around the world to meet new
people, in being of service after disasters, or in the
technical aspects, there is probably something for you.

Amateur Radio covers a huge number of interests, including local and
long distance communications, emergency communications, satellite
communications, digital networks, competitions, and electronics design.

Ubuntu offers many software applications related to Amateur Radio.
We'll discuss some of our favorite apps for use in the "ham shack",
and show how you can receive and decode digital conversations and
telemetry with Ubuntu and any shortwave radio receiver (no Amateur
Radio license required!).

Drop in and ask your questions!

When: Tuesday May 3rd at 16:00 UTC

Where: In the #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat channels on
freenode IRC.

Here's a web client for IRC:

During the Q&A we will also keep a back channel open in #ubuntu-hams so
anyone can shout out if they know about a specific topic. If there's
a big turnout, we'll probably move discussion over to #ubuntu-hams
after the end of the hour.
