The Trees??? That's awfully brave Craig! :-)

[@KM6LYW]

Close! It's a prelude to Rush - The Trees, performed live, called "Broon's Bane" kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmO3e4Jul6-Ugbc Pretty obscure -- I'm going to make you the name-that-tune winner!

i have currenty no experience on radio stuff, only had a baofeng hand radio a while ago that i used for just listening, im thinking on buying an rtl-sdr as the starting hardware and i may do the test to get the CEPT Radio Amateur license

"Final countdown" by Europe. I'm sure it will be recognizable and the main riff should be short.

[@KM6LYW]

but its a keyboard song? not guitar? i can whip out the synth next time?

Great work Craig! The DigiPi saved my FT8 SOTA activation recently. Question; would it be impossible to run FreeDV on the DigiPi?

[@KM6LYW]

w00t! SOTA! it's that time of year, thanks for letting me know. FreeDV, does it fit inside our 512MB memory budget? it's technically voice, but it also has "texting" so It makes the cut in that regard :)

Craig! What's the case your using on the Zero+Display?
