What do we have planned for Demos?

My prior question was ...
> For Demo modes ... our 10G demo last year is now available for QSO points so
> we need new demos.

and I didn't see any answers?

> Anyone got FSTV, SSTV ready to demo?
 (I can't find mine, went into parts box after last Boxboro and is so small I
can't find it ;-[ )

> Parrot-box or other Field-expedient/deployable repeater? 
 (I have both a parrot and a used controller, and a couple of old mobiles, one
w/o TX, but haven't made cables -- if someone wants to volunteer.)

APRS was one of our demos last year and could be again, anyone want to set it
up?

Maybe RDF as a Demo? Could set up a Doppler and log bearings, but a high RF
environment might not be wise ;-)

Anyone got DSP-10-SDR and want to try QPR EME as a demo ?-)

Anyone built the Spread-spectrum TAPR kit? Got a portable LOWFER station?

Anyone got ham-band R/C aircraft or cars?

Anyone got WEFAX/SatFax reception gear they can bring to demo?

Packet -- must be a Portable Node not part of normal infrastructure, not just
a client. Anyone got a node-to-go?

My complete brainstorming on Demo modes is at
http://www.EmaAres.com/fd/FD_Scoring_cmts.html#Bonuses, at comments on rule
7.3.10 .

If you can set one of these up, please tell Mike N1IST and the list what you
can & will do.
