More info from Dr. Fulton: * They are aiming to begin the training sessions sometime late July-early August (which may be problematic for me, as my stepdaughter and grandchildren are coming July 23 and staying until August 9, but we'll see). * Boards cost $12. * They are going to provide the software to those who want to learn it. * If you sign up and then find you can't participate, it's OK. He just wants to get a good feel for the interest level right now so he can be sure to have enough boards.

I do, however, have a couple of R-Pi projects where specialty interface boards might be interesting... gerry n5jxs On Thu, Jun 27, 2013 at 10:35 AM, Judson Ahern <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: Thanks, but I'm too old a dog to learn new tricks.
