<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Tom,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you very much for putting this list together. I’ve been talking with Bill and Phil in a side discussion about the Control and Local Host specification documents, and we were thinking about having a review meeting of those documents
on Friday evening during the happy hour. Maybe we can have a discussion on these points, too?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In regards to HamSCI 2020, I’m actively working on selecting a venue. I think the most likely choices at the moment are University of Scranton or Goddard Space Flight Center. There are a number of moving pieces at the moment. I’m hopeful
(although that may be pushing it) that I can have a definitely answer by DCC.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On Saturday morning, I’ll be giving an overview/update talk on the project. Hopefully I can incorporate some the answers to these questions in the talk.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<p>1. Need cost estimates for the Clock, DE, RF, and Magnetometer modules.<br>
2. What is the schedule for the modules, testing, prototypes?<br>
a. Data Engine<br>
b. 2-chan RF receiver<br>
c. GPS Clock<br>
d. Magnetometer<br>
e. Other ? SBC, Power supply, etc.<br>
3. Each module will have a unique manufacturer serial number based on some PROMs that have this capability. Any issues with the number or format?<br>
4. Do we need to create any videos describing what the project is, what the objectives are, status, or other?<br>
5. No discussion so far on power supplies, other than a request for +12V battery power capable. Do we need a plan?<br>
6. HAMSCI 2020<br>
a. Any more information on the location?<br>
b. Should we plan a demo of TangerineSDR or the completed parts?<br>
7. Receive Antennas. Mike Pappas has acquired a calibrated filed strength meter, we discussed seeing if DX Engineering would let us measure a production lot of antennas (10?) to determine the field strength sensitivity and variance.<br>
8. Do we need a test plan for the system?<br>
9. Upload data compression appears feasible (3:1 ?). Do we need any study or proposals of how much data we are asking folks to upload? Or is this better to determine experimentally?<o:p></o:p></p>
