Back at the end of last year, Malcolm G8NRP, secretary of the Harwell Amateur Radio club asked me if I'd be willing to give a talk there. Of course, I said, but at the time I had no idea what I might speak about it. Of course, it didn't get much more brain time until a few weeks ago when Malcolm contacted me again...
"Did you decide what you were going to talk about -as we need to put it into GB2RS news"! Ah...
So, a quick decision was needed. I'd been playing with my Raspberry Pi computer a lot at the time and also with the USB receiver dongle for SDR applications. I thought I could probably put together a talk along those lines.
Earlier this month I gave the talk. I think it was ok. I think I was better on the SDR stuff than the Pi stuff, but anyway, it seemed to go down ok.
I promised the Harwell club a link to the slides which is here
As ever, I'd do it slightly differently next time!
