There should be a special place in Hell for tweakers trying to sell shit on Craigslist who misrepresent what they have to offer. It has been running about 50% - half the stuff is as advertised and a great deal while the other half is crap with a pink ribbon on it for way too much money.
Meeting was very good - one of the engineers from this place: NW Digital Radio came to talk about their latest work - using amateur radio to send emails. I am already doing this but with a desktop Windows PC and a $150 stand-alone modem. These people are doing it with a $40 Raspberry Pi and their $90 UDRC board and free Linux software - whole package runs off batteries and is about the same size as a deck of cards - make that a paperback book if you want the touch-screen.
Weather was really nice today - got up to 63°F in town. Sunny. Everyone was happy.
