I'm back from a remarkably frosty FrostFest. The weather in Richmond itself was not as bad as it could have been, but the record-breaking blizzard just to the north of us dampened turnout somewhat.

Even so, the folks that braved the snow were enthusiastic, and it was great meeting current, new and future Depiction users.

Amateur Radio and Emcomm blogger David Coursey is looking to talk with some Depiction users. Drop him a line!

Those attending our recent EmComm and Amateur Radio webinars have seen me import and map a spreadsheet of several hundred HAM licensees for my local community. Many have asked for the step-by-step procedures for getting such a list of local Hams from the FCC database. In response to these requests, I've built a power point presentation that shows the detailed, sequential steps for getting this information from the FCC database. You can watch this presentation here.

We're sending David Friedman, our Amateur Radio technical consultant to the ARRL Florida State Convention this weekend, 12/5-6/2009.

David will man a booth with two laptops running Depiction, be available to tell you about his experience using Depiction in EmComm operations and have information about discounts for your ARES/RACES teams. He'll have some other special things, too, so look for him there!
