How can you be a great live event moderator?
In advance: - connect with panelists by email. - circulate title - invite each speaker to offer 3 questions, replying on the same email thread so everyone sees the others three. - Do NOT set up a call in advance: you will blow all the good discussion on the call and it will feel ‘flat’ or ‘scripted’ and bore everyone. - collate the questions by speaker name into one document before the event. Don’t share this. - Add a list of linking points of your own - always hold back two spare questions that are fairly open ended and anyone can answer (see ‘end’ below) End - hold your spare two questions for the very end (this is to fill in when no one has a question from the floor - its awful asking a room and no one steps forward with a question.

Raspberry-Noaa-V2
I was one of the team that helped author Raspberry-Noaa-V2 which has become one of the most widely adopted amateur satellite weather satellite receiver automations. While strictly a hobby i greatly enjoy seeing crazy installations such as the Off Grid system developed by Manuel Lausmann up in the artic circle in the north of Norway - as covered in the article linked to above.

There are numerous people contributing and since Justin (who really got the project running) got busy i have been overseeing the git repo and the discord community. I am not as active as I would like these days but occasionally have bursts of activity and update the pull-requests!
https://github.com/jekhokie/raspberry-noaa-v2/
UPDATE 2024: The project has been adopted by many thousands of stations and is in wide adoption around the world! I handed the reigns to the contributing community who continue to innovate and develop the platform.
It was recently reviewed on RaspberryPi.com ! https://www.raspberrypi.com/tutorials/build-your-own-weather-satellite-receiving-station/

Rottingdean Miniature Airshow (Part of International Drone Day)
It started of as a little innocent research: With the explosion of quadcopters and aerial video technology I went investigating the area for opportunities for id3as. I subsequently got hooked on flying myself, and while we are keeping things 'strictly hobby' at the moment, i threw my hat in the ring to organise Team-Brighton for www.internationaldroneday.com thinking it would be just a few friends in a field.
It has now exploded around me - with TV and Press Interviews, a large site…It started of as a little innocent research: With the explosion of quadcopters and aerial video technology I went investigating the area for opportunities for id3as.

It has now exploded around me - with TV and Press Interviews, a large site, hundreds signing up to come and watch or fly, Sussex Police Gatwick Runway Protection Team headlining the displays, of course a live webcast and live link-ups with other teams, racing, fair, displays etc etc etc....
Why oh why can i not just do things by halves....????
Do come: March 14th - see www.miniatureairshow.com for details! -

Our Software is a perfect marriage for Arqiva's established broadcast workflow operational services, combining telecom's grade uptime, with cloud scale and all the while maintaining realistic costs that enable Arqiva to aggressively open this new and exciting market. We like to feel we are an integral part of this Critical National Broadcasting infrastructure.
