I'd prefer not to meet this Wednesday evening, as there's a one-off meeting happening after the meeting re: hackerspace networking / travel program that's been really hard to schedule. Otherwise Wednesday nights would be fine. I'll be here on Thursday evening if people want to meet. I'm particularly interested in discussing community outreach strategies and iterating on the existing splash page.

I haven't been able to make a meeting yet but would love to help fabricate antenna mounting hardware and enclosures!  Is there a spec sheet for the transceivers y'all are planning to use that would show physical dimensions?

Cheers,
Hol
