To: All San Antonio Area Amateur Radio Operators &
Organizations.

Joe Barr, K1GPL, will be giving his presentation
"Ham Radio on
Linux" at
7pm on August 8, 2007 at the Nail Technical Center,
on the campus of
San
Antonio College.

Joe previously gave this presentation to the Austin
Linux Users Group
earlier this year. Using computers running Linux,
Joe remotely
accesses
his HF rig at home running Flgigi
(http://www.w1hkj.com/Fldigi.html)
and
making contacts on PSK31 and other PSK Modes.

Fldigi, written by David Freese, W1HKJ, is capable
of operating CW,
several versions of PSK and other digital modes.
Fldigi is written
for
the Linux operating system and is available on his
website. There
is a
"Live CD" with Fldigi on it so that individuals
running a Microsoft
operating system can boot off of the Live CD and try
Fldigi. Fldigi
has
been featured in QST magazine.

All area Amateurs are invited to attend this
presentation. More
information will be posted on http://www.satlug.org
and will be
updated
as additional information is available. Feel free
to forward this to
