HI Bill,<br>
<br>
I'd be more than happy to come to your May 15th meeting to give a talk. Thank <br>
you for the invitation! :-)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style="font-family:georgia,serif" class="gmail_default">Great!

I'm not sure how much you've heard about me, but I am the creator of "Andy's <br>
Ham Radio Linux", which I've been distributing from Sourceforge for about 7-8 <br>
years. <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/kb1oiq-andysham/" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sourceforge.net/projects/kb1oiq-andysham/</a></blockquote><div><br></div><div style="font-family:georgia,serif" class="gmail_default">Well I've known about your "Andy's" distribution of course, but most of our folks won't have followed the ham side of linux closely.

So noted.

I can easily modify an existing talk to make it more understandable to <br>
technically oriented people who are not hams. It would be my pleasure to do so.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style="font-family:georgia,serif" class="gmail_default">Great, thank you!</div><div style="font-family:georgia,serif" class="gmail_default"></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
