<p>Dwc: just passing through, nothing to see here...</p> <hr /> <div><br /> Damn mediawiki account Camelcase, why won't it let me be just a little person, like e.e. cummings??? ;-/<br /> <br /> <br /> Short for DancesWithCars, a biking trail name, found various places like <br /> wiki.laptop.org <br /> wiki.sugarlabs.org<br /> and mostly DancesWithCars.CrazyGuyOnABike.com <br /> and of course, gmail doz com.</div>

<p>Dwc: comparisons?</p> <hr /> <div>how does this compare to a heathkit multimeter (fried and not finding model number),<br /> RCA WV-539A (analog) also fried, DVM830L Venneman (cheap MicroCenter meter), or (basic) fluke?<br /> <br /> [[User:Dwc|Dwc]] 19:45, 5 October 2009 (UTC)</div>

<p>Dwc: /* Preparation */ add goggles and/or glasses</p> <hr /> <div>== What ==<br /> This workshop is designed for people who do not know much about electronics but would like to learn how to solder. In this workshop, you will learn how to solder capacitors, resistors, and ICs onto a printed circuit board. You will learn how to solder and de-solder through hole components and (hopefully) have a functional multimeter when the event is done.<br /> <br /> == When ==<br /> * October 21 from 7:30pm to 9:00pm (to be continued on the following two Wednesdays November 4, November 11)<br /> <br /> == Where ==<br /> * Baltimore Node! 120 W North Ave, Baltimore, MD<br /> <br /> == Who ==<br /> *Organizing - Sepideh Miller<br /> <br /> == How ==<br /> *use eventbrite to limit # of participants to 8<br /> *$65 for non-node members registered through eventbrite<br /> *$40 for node members paid by check or paypal directly to the Node (Please let me know if you do this.)<br /> <br /> == Preparation ==<br /> * &lt;del&gt;nail down date&lt;/del&gt;<br /> * &lt;del&gt;register event with eventbrite&lt;/del&gt; http://www.eventbrite.com/event/434646038 <br /> * blog about it<br /> * flyers (Kelly made a nice one, now we need to post them)<br /> * soldering irons (We have 6 cheap ones, may need to borrow some if all 10 people sign up.)<br /> * 5 spools soldering wick <br /> * soldering iron stands <br /> * wire snippers<br /> * some sponges (and access to water - or a container w/ water)<br /> * first aid kit <br /> * goggles and/or eye glasses (or see first aid kit above)<br /> <br /> Eventbrite text:<br /> ::This workshop will give you an opportunity to build a circuit by soldering components such as resistors, capacitors and ICs onto a printed circuit board.

<p>Dwc: suggestion on quorum, etc</p> <hr /> <div>FWIW:<br /> <br /> One way to handle quorum is to advance notice the meetings,<br /> especially annual meetings (usually around the time original<br /> officers are elected) and then define the quorum as members present.<br /> <br /> And 2/3 or more to re-decide a decision already made.<br /> <br /> Possibly add a phone in/ chat attendance option for meetings,<br /> as sometimes kids, parents, weather, other commitments make <br /> it impossible to attend.<br /> <br /> [[User:Dwc|Dwc]] 19:28, 5 October 2009 (UTC)<br /> <br /> probably one of the guys who showed up off the street...<br /> though I'm losing track of my weeks... time slipping...</div>
