Hi!
Some of us at sudo room / east bay mesh are working on a low bandwidth
disaster recovery mesh project based on software defined radios.
We're prototyping with a combination of USRP1 and RTL-SDR devices and GNU
Radio.
We're having some issues getting the receivers to demodulate our data
streams (using DQPSK and QAM modulation).
Does anyone have experience with such matters and if so, would you sit down
with us and help debug our setup (or even join the project)?
Willing to meet at either noisebridge or sudo room. We'll bring the food
and beer.

What an amazing Wednesday drop in. There were all these new people talking non stop in some kind of amazing math amazing ness
The Noisebridge people were there too and they were doing cross pollination
I felt all these multi cultural ethnic tolerant vibes as people emerged from the public school. What genuine passion! Sudo room is just amazing
And then I walked down the street past the amazing burger joint. There is an amazing taco place and all this amazing culture and nightlife . It's just all so positive. How truly inSpiratiknal

Dear Sudoers,
Thank you all so much for hosting me, I'm already making plans towards a
second visit :)
Being the first guest of the hacker exchange program, I'm passing the torch
-
anyone interested in to be hosted by me and the CRI in Paris? Just drop me
a line.
Regarding Knownodes, we have already began a concrete collaboration: The
development of the public API for Knownodes, initiated by Matt:
https://github.com/CyberCRI/KnowNodes/issues/56
Interested in contributing with the API, or other aspects of the project?
Here are a couple of ways to contribute if you're interested:
* Help with code, design or communication by joining a hackathon we will be
organising in November. The hackathon will happen in an old monastery in
the french countryside that has been converted into an anarchist workplace
for artists and hackers. It's as awesome as it sounds, and I might be able
to subsidise travel and staying costs.
* Help spread the word by organising a Knownodes workshop to map a problem,
an open question or a project. I will help you out with workshop material,
advice feedback etc'.
* If you wish to stay informed about the project join our list.

Health and happiness,

Looks like this solar hackathon is up SudoRoom's alley!
