[ale] Any ham radio operators among us? Linux in the shack?

[jon.maddog.hall@gmail.com]

I do not know if Andy Stewart is on this list, but he helped start the Worcester Linux User Group (WLUG) "way back when", and when he "retired" from that he started a Meetup group for Linux in the Worcester area.

Andy's second claim to fame (or maybe his first) is the fact he is an enthusiastic HAM that melded his love of Ham Radio with Linux and created a distribution of Ham oriented software that he updates about once every six months.

You can find this web page here:

https://ema.arrl.org/andy-stewart-kb1oiq/

and his project page here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/kb1oiq-andysham/

More than that he Andy is actually a really nice guy...not like me.

Warmest regards,

maddog
