Jesse Alexander WB2IFS - Keynote at GnuRadio Con 2025

[Dr. Nathaniel A. Frissell Ph.D.]

Hi HamSCI,

 

Our friend, collaborator, and member, Jesse Alexander WB2IFS, just gave an outstanding keynote at the 2025 GNU Radio Convention in Oregon. I unfortunately was not able to be there, but Jesse did share a recording with the ARDC list, as you can see below.

 

He is the first talk at this link: https://grcon.stream/

 

I encourage everyone to watch this excellent presentation.

Hello Hams,

 

I really enjoyed speaking at Gnu Radio Conference. Many Thanks to the GRCon 2025 entire team--especially Sam KM4SXP and Josh Morman. And thanks to Dr. Kristina Collins KD8OXT for recommending me as a keynote speaker. 

 

You can watch the recording of my keynote here in the first 30 mins: https://grcon.stream/ My keynote was first on Friday morning.
