We're very happy to announce that Bdale Garbe, KB0G, will be the keynote
speaker at the TAPR/MVFMA Digital BASH on Friday evening at Hamvention.
Bdale is one of the long-time "good guys" in the digital radio and amateur
satellite worlds. He was in the middle of the early work on KA9Q's "NET"
and "NOS" programs, pioneered megabit-rate packet radio, and in the
satellite world was heavily involved in the RUDAK and AO-40 GPS
experiments. Back in the Old Days, he was a board member and Vice
President of TAPR, and remains one of TAPR's best friends. On a different
front, Bdale was just elected as Debian Project Leader, so he now oversees
one of the major Linux distributions -- and the one that is by far the most
ham-friendly. Bdale works in the Linux development group at HP, and in his
spare (?) time does VHF/UHF/microwave contesting and roaming.
Bdale's talk will blend all of these interests into an entertaining and
informative presentation titled "From Bits in the Basement to Debian -- and
Back Again".
You can find more information about the Digital BASH and TAPR's other
Hamvention activities at http://www.tapr.org/tapr/dayton/.
See you there!
73,
John
