TNG - RTL-SDR dongle on Android phone & TNGFEST Discussion

       There will NOT be a ZOOM this WEEK. 

Mike, W8RKO, has a short(he says very short!) demo of an RTL-SDR dongle working with an Android phone

TNGFEST ??   What do you think about a TNG table fest?  Maybe once a month? Maybe 5% sales fee to support TNG stuff?  Other ideas….

Finishing Up - We will continue catching up with old friends and making some new ones 

Even though mask are not required feel free to wear a mask if you feel more comfortable.  There will be some wearing mask so you will not be the only one.

The pop cooler will only have water in it. So if you want anything else – bring it.

PLEASE if you are having any of the COVID symptoms DO NOT come to the clubhouse.
