Software / GCS Support:

The software solution is an open source development called "SiK". It has been re implemented to suit the new processor architecture available on the 32bit ARM processor core. A boot loader and interface is available for further development and field upgrade of the modem firmware via the serial port.

Most parameters are configurable via AT commands, Eg. baud rate (air/uart), frequency band, power levels.

Integrated support for configuring the RFD radios is supported by APM Planner.

The default settings are at 57600 baud, N, 8, 1, and 200k air data rate.

Worth your Money for Linda's Part
Format: Kindle
This book has two parts. Linda's description comes across as sincere and is told in story form as if you were sitting across the table from her having coffee. She is obviously a real person who experienced some extraordinary things. Her co-author may be a great guy but this is one of many books he sells and he doesn't have anything to say that adds to Linda's retelling. Great half a book!

The message of the book is beautiful
Format: Hardcover
The book 'UFO...Contact from the Pleiades (45th Anniversary Edition): Volumes I & II' is characterized by an objective, scientific and factual recapitulation of the physical evidence of the Billy Meier contact case with the Plejaren. In addition to the physical evidence, numerous witness statements and a number of proven predictions are also cited. All these material findings, such as the beautiful photos and films of the beamships in Switzerland, the metal analyses, the audio recordings and the radiation from the landing sites, were examined scientifically by the four-person investigative team from Arizona (which is certainly just as beautiful as Switzerland) using the best scientists and technology of that time in the USA. The authenticity of the case has not been scientifically disproved. The cultural and historical connection of almost all peoples and indigenous peoples with the Plajades on the basis of traditions round off the Plajaren contact case in the book. In addition to all these material, factual, neutral and objective analyses, the author, who lived with her husband Lee Elders on Billy Meier's terrain totaling more than one year over a period of more than seven years, gives the reader every now and then the chance to catch a glimpse of the immaterial factors of the case. And these remain in the memory. For short moments, the beauty of the case's message, occurring at the terrain, twinkles: Such as the immortality of higher values and virtues, the connection of all living beings, which through peace, freedom and love etc. bring themselves together to higher spheres.

This investigation stands the test of time
Format: Hardcover
I have been fascinated by the Billy Meier case ever since I first heard of this case 45 years ago. I have read several books on Billy’s contact experiences. And there have been quesions in my mind about the validity of the case. There are things I cannot explain but I chose to remain open to the possibility. With that being said, I really appreciate the investigative background of Lee and Brit Elders. The photographs, metal samples and recordings given to Lee and Brit Elders really stand the test of time and still quite amazing. This book is intelligently written and I think is beautifully done. The quotes from Semjase are positive and affirming. The photos are astounding and I am happy to have this in my library. I love a book that encourages me to ponder the possibilities.
