My computer died at 5yr 6days of \nage, just six days beyond any warrantee. I considered the decease as a \nterminal matter. Consequently, I have removed all removable elements, \nof drives and memory, and have ordered a new Dell Work Station \ncomputer. This new computer will be fully functional for operating the \nCAD and analytic software that is in my care. The new CPU will be a \nDual-Core Intel Xenon 2.66GHz and the memory will be upgraded to 4GB \nfrom the 2GB that I had been running. This machine, too, is an \nexpensive box. I do not expect the delivery until late July and it will \ntake me at least a week to get all software loaded and operational. As \na result, I will not have access to doing a paper for the symposium \nuntil that time.\n\nJim, I had done a multi-page note on the modular heat sink issue for \nthe URx and had hoped to convert that to a paper. If you have a copy of \nthat document, please feel free to use it as you see fit.\n\n'73,\nDick, KD1K\n\n----- Original Message -----\nFrom: Jim Sanford <[email protected]>\nDate: Tuesday, June 26, 2007 10:19 am\nSubject: [eagle] Symposium -- call for papers and misc Eagle issues\nTo: EAGLE <[email protected]>, Daniel Schultz <[email protected]>\n\n> Team:\n> The second call for Symposium papers has been issued.\n> \n> As I said a while back, it is EXTREMELY important that Eagle have \n> a lot \n> to say and show at Symposium. Each TEAM should publish SOMETHING. \n> I'd \n> prefer team leads to present, but anyone on the team is fine with \n> me. \n> Or, if you have something to present, but can't make it, I'll do \n> it, or \n> get someone to. (This is a last resort, I want the presentations \n> to be \n> about what YOU are doing, not me. But I'd rather get the info \n> out....)\n> Please get your abstracts in to Dan NOW, so he can start planning. \n> To \n> that end, Tom Clark, has agreed to write, have peer reviewed and \n> PUBLISH \n> IN THE PROCEEDINGS the collected thoughts regarding phased array. \n> (Thanks, Tom!!!)\n> \n> Other specifics:\n> We have advertised the ACP as a key part of Eagle, the PRIMARY \n> payload \n> in the eyes of some. Yet, we've said little about it, since \n> publishing \n> the minutes of the San Diego meeting, which was held a year ago. \n> Now is \n> the time. We need to say a LOT about ACP: modulation schemes, \n> digital \n> protocols, multiplexing techniques, link budgets (in terms of how \n> many \n> watts I need on uplink, how big an antenna, and how good a preamp) \n> etc. \n> Yes, much of that can be gleaned from the SD meeting, but much is \n> not \n> yet defined. It's time to define it, and publish what is at least \n> our \n> current thinking. At least one ACP presentation needs to be for \n> the \n> general user, who is not a digital communications geek. We need \n> to \n> convince him what ACP will do, the benefits to HIM, and why he \n> should \n> buy the equipment when we make it available. Think of this one as \n> a \n> sales pitch. THIS IS IMPORTANT.\n> \n> Similarly, we need to publish some RESULTS from the power system \n> experiments.\n> \n> Juan Rivera has agreed to something on all the efforts and results \n> of \n> the project Oscar team with the U-band RX. Juan, you and I have \n> corresponded about which topic, I sent you suggestions, please \n> choos and \n> send in the abstract soonest. Writing the paper can come as it \n> evolves.\n> etc. etc.\n> \n> Guys, this is important, please make the commitment and take a few \n> minutes to do the abstract. Dan needs it for planning, and Patti \n> and \n> Kevin need it for purposes of marketing Symposium. They are \n> working \n> hard on local educational connections, but that can only go so far \n> without at least a list of content.\n> \n> Other:\n> I apologize for my low profile lately. The last two weeks have \n> been \n> brutal at work, included a long trip to VA (spoke at a retirement, \n> went \n> to a wedding, and happened to be in town when my grandson was born \n> 5 \n> weeks early), a 27 hour power outage (now have a 5500 watt \n> generator) \n> and I did take time out for Field Day. I'm going to continue to \n> be low \n> profile, as I leave in an hour or so for a meeting in DC which \n> will be \n> gruelling. Back here Sunday, probably a day or so to recover, \n> then back \n> in the saddle. Despite all this, I have managed to provide \n> answers Juan \n> needed to continue working, and have corresponded with a couple of \n> others.\n> Thanks for all your efforts. We are a few short months from \n> Symposium, \n> please make the push.to publish. This is an opportunity we must \n> fully \n> exploit.\n> \n> Thanks & 73,\n> Jim\n> [email protected]\n> \n> PS Grandson is fine, just tiny. He may even leave hospital this \n> week. \n> A few photos at www.wb4gcs.org\n> \n> jas\n> \n> _______________________________________________\n> Via the Eagle mailing list courtesy of AMSAT-NA\n> [email protected]\n> http://amsat.org/mailman/listinfo/eagle\n> \n", "attachments": [] }
