Yes it was indeed an excellent presentation!

THANKS everyone for helping to make better
meetings!

and YES indeed the presentation covered making
your WiFi more secure by using stronger passwords
when using WPA ( basically forget WEP, WPA and WPA2
are the way to go if your router supports it. )

plus we had some great coverage on potential
legal issues and amateur radio licensing.

Remember we'd love to have more fun speakers,
SO if you know of anyone PLEASE let us know
so we can make arrangements for more great 
meetings ;)

thanks
matti
