We will be having our meeting on Zoom again this month but hope we can resume in-person meetings soon. Officials in charge of our normal meeting facilities have not yet adopted a post-pandemic policy and outside groups are still not allowed to hold meetings there. We hear they are going to revisit this policy later this month, so hopefully we’ll get the go-ahead soon.

We were hoping to have a presentation on Mesh networking this month but had a date mix-up and we are rescheduling to the August. So, this month we are going to talk about the new SpaceX Starlink internet system. Elon Musk has launched an ambitious project to bring internet to the entire globe and how but works is the next generation in communications.

SBARC K6TZ is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Topic: SBARC General Club Meeting – July 16, 2021
Time: Check-in on Jul 16, 2021 07:00 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
Meeting starts at 7:30.
