PLEASE! I need to use your presentation at my club soon. Is that OK? I
can send you back the add ons that I will do to it. I need to add
pictures to the end of your report on the KAT/KPA100 in the EC2
enclosure, and also the KPA100 in the K2 chassis version. Also I need
to show the radio performance comparison chart...
Well, it's ceratinly OK with me if you use *my* stuff. Of course I can't
clear you to use the images that *I* used without permission; so you're
kind of on your own there. Most of them came from the Elecraft site, but
others came from other ham radio websites--- the sequence dealing with
the history of amateur radio building in particular...a total of three
or four images, as I recall.
Also, to make changes you probably need to understand that this was
*not* a Microsoft Powerpoint presentation. It was done with Huckster, a
very lightweight open-source slideshow tool written in Java. So if
you're happy to use what's posted on the web, that's fine. If you need
to alter the Huckster scripting, you'll need the script, the Huckster
JAR file (kind of a portable Java executable package, downloadable from
the Huckster site) and you'll need to install the Java runtime on your
computer (if it isn't there already).
The laptop I built the presentation on is currently in the shop for
service (backlight quit on me)...so the backup of the Huckster script I
have immediately available here on my Linux server isn't *quite* the one
I used to generate the slides you see online. When I get the laptop back
(assuming HP hasn't found it necessary to clobber the hard disk to fix
the backlight) I may be able to track down the source of the images from
my browser history and retroactively ask for permission to
republish...or at least know who to ask. That will be at least a week
from today, maybe two.
So that's the situation. Summary:
() Use what I wrote, fine.
() Use the images: you're on your own as to intellectual property
issues...*I* think illustrating my lecture with them was within fair
use but your milage may vary.
() Modifying the presentation could be tricky.
