Our next Tech/Social meeting at the Redlands Coast Museum is on Monday 15th September, 7:00PM for 7:30PM start. Members and visitors (non members) are always welcomed.
In line with the club’s ongoing initiative to encourage members to reconnect with the technical side of the hobby, Technight offers the perfect opportunity to refresh your knowledge, spark curiosity, and explore topics you may have long set aside. Whether you’re brushing up on fundamentals or diving into something new, it’s a relaxed and engaging space to catch up, share insights, and get inspired by fellow enthusiasts
Vice President John Bews (VK4JBE) will be presenting a technical talk on LoRa modulation (not to be confused with LORAN). LoRa Long Range technology enables low-power, long-range wireless communication, making it ideal for a variety of applications. But how exactly does it achieve this? What are its strengths, and how well does it perform in practice? Join us to find out.
As a follow-up to this talk, next month’s Technight is set to explore the Meshtastic® system, which leverages LoRa modulation for mesh networking. New BDARS member David (VK4DEV) has kindly offered to present on the topic, sharing insights into the system, local operations, and the infrastructure he’s been involved in setting up.
Always on the agenda is a quick update on recent club activities, time for a coffee and a chat with your colleagues, and of course any ‘show-and-tells’ that you bring along to introduce to the group – your latest technology acquisitions or home brew projects to amaze the other members!.
So come along; Its also a good opportunity to:-
- Enlist help for anything you need from the other members.
- Confirm shared arrangements for the upcoming contests, hamfests and meetings.
