SCRC July meeting – Fldigi

The SCRC meeting was held on Tue, July 21, 2020 at the United Church of Christ at 335 Horseblock Rd. Farmingville, NY. Social distancing and masks were required and the meeting was available over zoom for those who were not able to attend physically. A quick board meeting was held starting at 7pm followed by a Zoom presentation in which the softwware Fldigi was discussed and how it can be used for Emergency Communications. This was Part 1 of getting familiar with the software which included for purposes of the talk: Fldigi, Flrig, and Flmessage. It was reported that the audio was a bit low in the room which affected some members, so that is something we can work to improve on a Part 2.

Fldigi is open source and free software developed by David Freese, W1HKJ which will run on Windows, Linux, and Mac OSX operating systems.
