My life is like c++, heavily overloaded classes.
Saturday is Field Day with NRV ARC and a major regional launch with NRV
Rocketry.
I have a friend coming into town. He's a famous ham and even more famous
racketeer. His name is Bdale Garbee, KB0G. He and his children, all hams,
are coming to see me.
Here is my limitations as a result of all this confusion.
The Flex 6700 is easy to set up and operate. I can set it up and leave you
with it while I go to Kentland Farms for the launch. Or I can go to
Kentland Farms for the launch and bring the radio and set it up later.
I'm going to let you folks choose. I am flying a large rocket I've been
building Saturday with my friend in attendance to see.
He's a famous person in many areas. He's a polymath like me. We built
spacecraft together and separately for AMSAT. He was leader of the Debian
Linux project which is now most widely known for being the basis for Ubuntu
Linux. Bdale is friends with and an important part of the Free Software
Foundation. They gave us the gnu compilers, gnuradio, and the Gnu Public
License (GPL).
His polymath nature is also known to rocketeers. He founded Altus Metrum
to get his genius son involved in an activity with him. It quickly became
the premier supplier of rocket and balloon technology in the world at great
prices.

Bdale, Elizabeth, and Robert and will join us for all events. Karen has
many things keeping her in Colorado.
Sharon, the twins, and I will attend Field Day, we will bring the Flex 6700
and you choose how you want to experience it under the restrictions I am
telling you I have to operate under.
