[K3PZN-List] Arduino project

[Kilroy, Patrick L. (GSFC-5680)]

Hey, Dave,

That is really cool stuff!  I will jump 
aboard with you guys.  As soon as Steve 
N3SB gets back from his travel, I hope 
to meet with him and one of my students 
to explore his ATmega168 packet radio 
hardware and code.  

Right now, the PICetSat II sends its 
telemetry in 10 WPM Morse Code.  We want 
to have another model just like it that 
offers the downlink in packet.  

More on this later, including at the 
next CCARC club meeting, which I believe 
will be this coming Monday, July 13.  

I will bring in my module to show.  

Will you be there?  

Thanks and 73,

Pat Kilroy

Back at the November meeting there was the presentation of the Arduino
micro-controller.  Well, I finally put my Arduino to use.  I used the
Arduino to control the opening and closing of an awning at my house
based on sunlight, wind and rain.  I did much of the work yesterday as
far as programming and putting together a small weather station.

Anyway, I have posted a few pictures and some information if any one is
interested.
