The 24,000 scientists who
attended last December's fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU)
had an opportunity to be introduced to HamSCI, the Ham Radio Science Citizen Initiative (www.hamsci.org).
The ARRL Letter reports that the
organization was featured in two poster presentations, "HamSCI: The Ham
Radio Science Citizen Investigation," by group co-founder Nathaniel
Frissell, W2NAF, a post-doctoral research associate at the New Jersey Institute
of Technology; and "Characterizing the Ionospher Using a Commercial Off
the Shelf Software Defined Radio System," by Virginia Tech undergrad Magda
Moses, KM4EGE. The weeklong conference was held in San Francisco.
