At the February meeting, Dr. Tingye Li (pronounced Ting-Yee Lee) will speak on topics of communications, both optical and RF.  Dr. Tingye Li worked in communications research at Bell Labs for several decades.  His early work was in microwave communications.  He progressed into optical communications at it's inception, and participated in the development of WDM, a multiplexing of up to 160 optical channels on a single fiber.  Well into his retirement, he currently travels the world giving seminars on optical technology.

General meeting

This month there will be a presentation by Bill Honeyman, KG6CNL.  He will be telling everyone about the Emergency Communicaitons Response Vehicle, ECRV,  that is in operation for the Red Cross.  I understand that there are only 11 of these vehicles in operation in the country.  This should be an interesting presentation.  I hope everyone can make it.
