SLAMS Breakfast on Sunday, October 10, 2019

We have met at Denny's to have breakfast and some talk once again. There was one major topic discussed at today's meeting - optical communications. Several approached were discussed. Harry WA0CNS demonstrated his test setup in the parking lot:




Sam W0PCE told the group about his setup to test receivers. Herbert AF4JF told the group that SLAMS actually pursued the idea of optical communications ten years ago, see the laser setup here and here. Mike N0OBI demonstrated his infrared detector ... optical communications definitely seem to be the topic of our future meetings.

Info for the members of the THE_SLAMS reflector on Yahoo Groups: due to major changes of the service from Yahoo, our group will soon switch to other system Watch your email for instructions!

December 2015 SLAMS Breakfast

Sunday, 6 December, my alarm clock chirping away, urging me to get up and make myself ready for the one-hundred and four mile trek from Girard, IL to Maryland Heights, MO to say, "Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to some of my dearest ham radio friends while at breakfast.  Unfortunately, not all of us were there, and you were missed, but we are all looking forward to more ham radio, microwave adventures with the coming New Year!
