(Movin on, & new leaders) Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2013 14:53:18 -0700 & tell hackerspaces.org the news. --- Congratulations Noisebridge Radioers! https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Radio You've had several successful meetings, much was discussed, & progress is well underway to get the NB FCC Low Power FM broadcast station license in before its Nov 14 due date! :) -- Now I'm gonna be movin on. -- Back in February I posted to the NB amateur [= "love"] radio CQ list that NB ought to have a radio station. In August Norman Bradley (also a ham) alerted us that the FCC was about to begin accepting applications, the first time in decades in metropolitan areas. Since then I have chosen to invest my time, in a personal overload situation, into this once in a lifetime opportunity, to get the Noisebridge radio project ball rolling - contributing the skills & knowledge I have, which many here don't (yet) have, so that this project would hopefully acquire sufficient momentum to become self sustaining. I hope it worked - cause I'm about to hit the door. ;) :) -- Now Radioers, leaders of NB, & all etceterians who desire that NB have as much success as possible, hackers have as much success as possible, & our wonderful San Francisco, Bay Area, California & global societies have as much success as possible, I'm now passing the ball on to you! Good luck! :) -- I knew from the beginning that one tiny little me wasn't gonna be able to either create a NB radio station, nor sustain one. So I've tried to alert Noisebridgians to the possibilities & benefits, with the hope that enough people will be sufficiently intrigued so that the idea becomes a reality. I hope that has happened. I'm not going away, but I am bowing out of most Noisebridge "The Bridge" radio activity. I've got many other respnsibilities to attend to. If this project is going to succeed, it has now become _your_ responsibility. The good news is, I believe you definitely have the capabilities to make it a reality. And I believe the unknown hackers, & unknown future hackers, will thank you for it! :) -- If it _is_ actually going to happen, the most important thing that someone who has _not_ done this before, has got to do is make a personal commitment to: 1) getting the Tues 6-8PM weekly radio hacker meeting onto the calendar on the main nb web page, & 2) sending a weekly meeting announcement to the NB--Discuss & Announce lists, so all hackers are refreshly reminded of the meeting, & of their opportunity to contribute to radio, & social, hacking. The other main thing is to immediately help Norman, in anything he needs, to enable him to get a proper, successful application in to the FCC by its November 14th due date. - Please note: Norman is a very busy guy, too. I believe he is also going far out of his way, cutting deep into his own personal responsibilities & resources, to do the things only he at Noisebridge is able to do, to get this project he believes is important to both Noisebridgians, & hackers everywhere, into the air. [Please join me right now in giving Norman Bradley a big round of applause! Me: Clap clap clap! Thanks, Norman! This project certainly wouldn't have had so much progress without all your efforts. I certainly couldn't have done it without you! :) ] -- Now, I've got to get on to other important responsibilities, lide helping Oaklland's SudoRoom get a radio application in, & alerting the USA hacerspacces to their impending doom^h^h^h^h opportunities to get their FCC applications in, with only two weeks notice! -- I'll have more to say, later. Bottom line: It is now _YOUR_ responsibility to _immediately_ get an announcement out that everyone is invited to Tonight's 6-8PM Noisebridge FM broadcast Radio meeting. Best wishes to all. Good luck. And, as we say in the amateur radio community, 73 to everyone. :) --- Join the BerkeleyTIP-Global mail list - http://groups.google.com/group/BerkTIPGlobal.
