LHS Episode #193: All About AREDN

This is the 193rd episode of Linux in the Ham Shack. In this episode, your hosts discuss ARRL Field Day, JT65 and new modes like it, the wonder of 6m and the E Layer, the NSA, patent trolls, useful command line utilities and more. We also have a great interview with Joe Ayers, AE6XE, about AREDN, the Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network. This one runs a bit long, but we thought it was worth it.

Segment 5 (Cheryl’s Recipe Corner)
Broccoli Salad
Description
Since summer is the height of summer BBQ season (and our 4th of July holiday is coming up next week), I decided to post a great summertime picnic salad. This is one of my favorite salads… sweet, salty, crunchy, etc.
Ingredients
2 heads fresh broccoli (or 1 pound frozen broccoli, rinsed until thawed and drained well)
1 red onion
1/2 pound bacon
2 cups whole grapes (smaller ones) OR 3/4 cup raisins
3/4 cup sliced almonds or nuts of your choice (optional)
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
Directions
Place bacon in a deep skillet and cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Cool and crumble. Cut the broccoli into bite-size pieces and cut the onion into very thin bite-size slices. Combine with the bacon, raisins, your favorite nuts and mix well. To prepare the dressing, mix the mayonnaise, sugar and vinegar together until smooth. Stir into the salad, let chill and serve.
