Burgers 2016

Me and Ana travelled to Cambridge last weekend for the Debian UK BBQ. We travelled by train and it was a rather scenic journey. In the past, on long journeys, I’ve used APRS-IS to beacon my location and plot my route but I have recently obtained the GPS module for my Yaesu VX-8DE and I thought I’d give some real RF APRS a go this time. While the APRS IGate coverage in the UK is a little disappointing, as is evidenced by the map, a few cool things did happen.

FOSDEM 2016

FOSDEM 2016 starts tomorrow and I will be attending. I’ve not got off to a brilliant start with my flight being cancelled, though SAS have now rebooked me onto a later flight and I’m going to arrive in time for the start tomorrow morning. Unfortunately, I am going to miss the Friday beer event. On the Saturday, the real-time communications devroom will be happening, and I am one of the devroom admins that helped to organise this.
