That's super cool. Some day I hope to hear that.

Had a chance to work through some of this during the week. Got the resistor installed and the lead on the battery contact side of the board that goes to the front. Then I found that my soldering iron isn't small enough to make the contact on the STM32. So now I need to order some new tips for the iron.

That's the double edged sword of federation. The owner of the server has ultimate control over the content hosted on it. There are other servers who's administrators will ban users using hate speech. Look around they are easy to find.

Also found something neat last night. I wasn't expecting this, but sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade did not break the installation on the nano pi. For ~$50 access points, this software really opens things up. The default software 'pi-star' wasn't maintained as well for the nano pi.

Yeah, they are nice. I was just hoping to upgrade the hand mic. Then I went down a rabbit hole. So I was thinking when out on the lawn I could go total old man style and use a headset. In the end it still means I have to do something with my HM-31. Maybe I'll just modify the HM-31.

I still need to get proficient with morse code. I was trending toward that goal last year, but deviated off the path.

Nice write-up. Quite clear.

I see your point. And agree with it. Could turn it into a meet up coordination for hams at events and local get togethers.....

I like the idea of non-radio chat. I am sure if we all have one hobby in common, others would soon follow.

These things are awesome. I first got into digital modes with DStar and an Openspot. Now I got openspots and a pi-star mmdvm running at the house, along with a Shari allstar node. These all have been super fun to build. Building is always the best way to approach these things too.
