101 First steps with M17
(Just sketching out the thought process)
Welcome to Class 101, First steps with M17! What would you like to do?
- Use the M17 protocol to talk with others in the amateur radio community -> go to “Talk with M17 - Who are you?”
- Learn more about the M17 initiative in general -> go here to the Wikipedia page
- Learn more about the M17 Foundation -> go here to the M17 Foundation page
- Learn about and contribute to the M17 protocol specification? -> go here to the M17 protocol specification page
- Learn about and contribute to M17 hardware -> (where do we send them?)
Talk with M17 - Who are you?
- A newly licensed amateur radio operator, or a seasoned operator with no digital mode experience -> send to a read-up on digital modes and ask them to revisit here
- A seasoned operator with existing digital mode experience -> send to “Talk with M17 – What environment do you want to use?”
- Not a licensed amateur radio operator -> Send them somewhere that discusses what amateur radio is, and why they'd want to use M17
Talk with M17 – What environment do you want to use?
- I don’t have any special hardware, or I don’t know! –> “Talk with M17 - Droidstar on Android, Windows PC, or Linux PC”)
- I'd like to use my WPSD Raspberry Pi hotspot with M17 -> go here to the WPSD page
- I'd like to use my radio loaded with custom firmware builds that can talk M17 -> go here to the OpenRTX page
- I'd like to use my existing amateur radios with a purchased M17 modem -> go here to the Module17 page
