It is time to start documenting what projects will be presented. This years theme is Microprocessor based ham Radio Projects. Demonstrate that we are makers....
Hi Michael, Here are a few 100% arduino projects I can bring to the table if there is interest. They consist in diavolino's with shields that people can...
I do a fair amount of ham stuff with microcontrollers of course, but I'm not sure if it counts since I do it commercially. I'd be happy to provide demo units...
I'm trying to think if I've got any non-production stuff I might show. The SSTVCAM was in that category for a year or two. Most of the stuff I did last year...
I was planning to attend MakerFaire San Mateo this year...but it's NOT going to happen.....I do NOT miss HamVention. It's a shame that the guys that run this...
MakerFaire has almost 5 times the attendance. So there is a huge potential of attracting more people to the hobby. There are many hams that participate in the...
Yes, it's certainly a pain and we're losing a lot of ham presence. However, next year they aren't having the ARRL national convention in Dayton; it's...
... Yeah, and Maker Faire is a lot more fun - but I suspect I wouldn't be able to sell nearly as much stuff. I'll have to wait for Burning Man to see all of...
ha ha ha ha ha ....... Ad nauseam Funny. For Pacificon I am imvolved with Parachute Mobile. I was approached by the someone in the Makerfaire organization to...
Look, it does not make sense to have those 2 events the same weekend.....MakerFaire is LOSING potential attendees due to it...I PERSONALLY know of SEVERAL...
I rather doubt that the few hams who will choose to go to Dayton rather than the MakerFaire even came up when deciding on which weekend to hold it. Ham radio...
actually ... the LUNAR rocket club moved the Moffet Field May launch date this year to accommodate MF. turns out that same weekend the Collings Foundation...
I don't believe that MF and HV are any different, except that MF hosts a 'launch pad' for vastly more areas of passion and DIY-novation. If Ham Radio...
Chris, and all: I don’t often weigh-in….but I enjoy closely following these discussions and planning. First, let me thank each of you for all you do to...
Hmmmm ... looks like my iMac made it into the video. Too bad the iPad PSK software I DIY'd from scratch didn't ... ... -Kristen (K6WX) "Your eyes ... it's a...
http://makerfaire.com/ The Bay Area Maker Faire is May 19 & 20 with young maker day on the 18th. So, who else has an arduino project they want to show at the...
So far I have 4 of us committing to projects for the maker faire. Who else has a microprocessor based project they would like to show? Preferably arduino, but...
If you are interested, I recently built an Azimuth & Elevation light weight rotator system using Arduino Mini Pro and a couple of RC servos. It is no ...
Yes. I don't remember if you volunteered last year, but space is at a premium. Can you demonstrate this table top, or do you need a tripod? If enough people...
If you've never done an Arduino project but have some electronics skills, I'd be happy to work with you to get a project started. Projects don't have to be...
You know I'll take you up on your offer. On Tue, Jan 24, 2012 at 10:17 PM, Leigh L. Klotz, Jr WA5ZNU < ... -- Michael Pechner NE6RD - Amateur Extra ...
The rotator is compatible with a standard camera tripod and the whole thing can run off of 8 rechargeable AA NiMH cells (4 cells for Arduino and 4 for the ...
I have avery nice list of project proposals. I'll publish them to the group soon. And even though we have enough projects to have 2 going all the times for...
I need three more people to step up with a project they will have done. I have done the first draft for who will show which demos when Three of us are...
