Re: [psas-avionics] ARRL/TAPR Digital Comm Conference
Hey James, Now that I have a few more things off my plate, I think it would be a good thing for me to get back to the PSAS project. Let's talk, maybe I should come to a meeting again too! :) See you at the launch? Glenn - KJ7SU Glenn N. LeBrasseur, P.E. gle...@twaves.org James Perkins wrote: Hi folks, Would anyone be interested in attending the 29th Annual ARRL and TAPR Digital Communications Conference? It's September 24-26, 2010 here in Portland, Oregon (well, actually across the river at The Heathman Lodge, Vancouver, Washington). It's good at an introductory level as well as technical, demo, and seminar levels. I'd love to spend a little time this summer getting back into the radio side of the avionics. I suppose it would help for me to start showing up at meetings. :-) With the onboard GPS, telemetry, command, backup command, and ATV, the unique antenna topologies, power and cost considerations and physical environment demands, our use of radios in PSAS are unusual and interesting. The conference topics are a fun match: "Software defined radio (SDR)..., digital satellite communications, Global Position System (GPS), precision timing, Automatic Position Reporting System® (APRS), short messaging (a mode of APRS), Digital Signal Processing (DSP), HF digital modes, Internet interoperability with amateur radio networks, spread spectrum, IEEE 802.11 and other Part 15 license-exempt systems adaptable for Amateur Radio, using TCP/IP networking over amateur radio, mesh and peer to peer wireless networking, emergency and Homeland Defense backup digital communications, using Linux in amateur radio, updates on AX.25 and other wireless networking protocols. (pretty much verbatim from the webpage but I clipped the one phrase about digital voice). If we can submit an abstract by July 31st, or two, we could present a paper as well. Details are at http://tapr.org/dcc.html - let me know if you're interested in going. For locals this can be really cheap.

They are adjacent, only overlapping on one day (ION GNSS 21-24 Sep, DCC 24-26 Sep). I see ION is professional and $900, a bit steep for me. The cost for DCC seems to be a secret but it is for people serious about noncommercial radio experimentation, like us. In 2007 the DCC two-day conference was $70, so I'm guessing it will be on the rough order of $100. I don't expect the TAPR folks to respond to my queries until they get back next week from Dayton Hamvention. > Let's chat right after the 5/23 launch about both attending and > getting some papers in. That would be great fun. Sweet. That gives me more time to get caught up on work. > And, for the record, yes, you should start showing up again ;) Due to other commitments, odds are long I can get to the 5/23 launch, but you never know, if other things don't happen that weekend it could become possible for me. I'm snowed under with work right now, but by mid-June I can probably get back into showing up at meetings.

Hi James! Wow, this is great! Both ION GNSS 2010 *and* DCC are going to be in Portland this fall. We're just a hotbed of coolness. Let's chat right after the 5/23 launch about both attending and getting some papers in. That would be great fun. And, for the record, yes, you should start showing up again ;) Andrew On 05/10/2010 04:33 PM, James Perkins wrote: > Hi folks, > > Would anyone be interested in attending the 29th Annual ARRL and TAPR > Digital Communications Conference?
