Hello fellow HAMs! We ( satnogs.org - librespacefoundation.org ) will be once again in FOSDEM as a group. Kristoff, what are you thinking for receiving satellites? We could arrange a demo even without a rotator. We also have a talk [1] about SatNOGS and how we will be commanding the first open source satellite ( UPSat [2]) that we built and awaits to be launched this March. We would love to meet with more HAMs, so join us! [1] https://fosdem.org/2017/schedule/event/satnogs/ [2] https://upsat.gr On Fri, Jan 13, 2017 at 1:23 AM, Kristoff <kristoff@skypro.be> wrote:
HI Jon,
Great to see more hams at fosdem! :-)
As we did in 2015, we will be promoting hamradio in our infobooth in the AW building so feel free to come and visit us for a chat!
There will be no VHF/UHF station but out goal is to have a HF station showing up digital modes (you know, all these "spacey-sounds") and do a demo on receiving satellites, but we are still looking with the people from FOSDEM how to organised this safely.
F.Y.I, I propose to use the calling frequencies on 70 cm: 433.500 for FM and 433.450 for DMR (id 9 / TS 2).
Local repeaters are ON0UBA (439.225, -7.6), FM/echolink (subtone: 131.8 Hz) + C4FM ON0PRX (438.4125, -7.6), DMR on the brandmeister network.

Hi,
For any fellow hams who happenn to have taken their handheld radio with them, I am visiting FOSDEM today and will be QRV and calling "CQ FOSDEM" at 433.500 Mhz (calling frequency 70 cm) FM inbetween talks.
Reviving an old thread, but as a reminder for those of you suitably equipped (and licensed!) that there’ll likely be FOSDEM attendees monitoring the amateur bands.
I’ll have my 70cm DMR/Analog radio with me again this year.
