@punkrocknight - didn't do it at DEFCON. i just bought the manual and then took the exam in kokomo. I'll send you a pic when I get it set up. Trying to figure out a way to run a coaxial cable out of the side of my house in order to put an antenna on my flat rubber roof (without creating a hole for water to get in).

A friend of a friend is printing 3-D masks. Here is a link to his fundraising campaign. Note- I am in no way implying that these masks are surgical N95 quality.

Punk Rock Night live feed starting again soon. I am so glad that Greg is doing this while everyone is sheltering in place. It is fun to pop in and out of the feed between emails. https://vimeo.com/event/25763?fbclid=IwAR2eXCm3wuRLPl3L6BIYLO7i3u70of030QN6CJ0nkMkrA9O_W7kdZSmQXj0
@dino - not yet. My attendance is now in doubt as a proverbial atomic bomb has been dropped on our budget for the year.

@punkrocknight - yeah, I have already reserved my hotel (but not bought my plane tickets yet). Going to have to think long and hard about it and will probably make the final call around June 1st.
