Date: Sunday, September 14th, 2025 Time: 1:00 PM - Dusk Location(s): Brook Run Park 4770 North Peachtree Road Dunwoody, GA 30338 What3Words: ///lifters.colonies.jokers Details: The Atlanta Radio Club will be hosting an outing in the park on Sunday, 14 September, 2025 at Brook Run Park. We will start setting up around 1pm Sunday with the idea of operating a few stations (in a few different modes) till about dusk. We will certainly be out of the park by dark. The main purpose for this outing is to practice portable setup similar to a POTA, share experiences, check out what other people do when setting up for portable, and have fun playing radio in the park. A "subtext" here is getting ready for the Georgia State POTA Fall Sprint coming up October 18th (we will have an outing for that too - more information coming). We will be setting up in the "picnic" pavilion on the hill across from the Treetop Quest Zip Line entrance. We will supply water, soft drinks, snacks. Since we are going to be operating in a pavilion we will have good cover in case of rain, but there is a walk up to it so rain gear just in case. You might want to bring a folding or camp chair just in case. There it is, simple day in the park playing radio.

He will discuss their design, configuration, specifications, and use cases. There are many microcontrollers on the market, and hopefully, he'll give us recommendations for ones he's worked with while also explaining the differences between microcontrollers and single-board computers, such as Raspberry Pis and Arduinos. Before you start digging through your closets looking for your Veg-O-Matics, know this: this is not the Popeil you're looking for. Same name, different family. Sorry. CLUB BYLAWS
