It doesn't? Then what's this? http://www.fftw.org/install/windows.html Actually, I thought one of the reasons C was "worthwhile" was that it was generally portable.

I thought you were going to pay for the programmer by grant, so I don't really understand your business. The downside is that FFTW and many other useful tools don't work on Windows. It's those tools that make C worthwhile to begin with. On Friday 16 November 2007 2:11 pm, Edmund Cramp wrote: > Why restrict ourselves to Windows?

Edmund, You ever look into doing any of that in matlab? There is the matlab compiler which would make your code portable (and if I am not mistaken, no licensing needed for the client, depending on the licensing terms for redistributing?). Just a thought I know a bunch of developers fluent in Matlab stuff if you want to compare notes with someone. And we do lots of FFTs, etc. -Shannon On Nov 16, 2007 2:11 PM, Edmund Cramp wrote: > Thanks for the of replies everyone: > > What kind of math? - the ability to code FIR filters, implement FFT > functions to do spectral processing, wavelet analysis and other custom > waveform analysis to suite whatever is the flavor of the day from the > academics.

Baton Rouge is "class C" airspace, meaning that you must be in contact with the controller, but you can just about fly where you want within reason (since 9/11 over stadiums and large gatherings are off limits). It would probably be best to have a plan of where to go first and let the controller know beforehand what areas/headings would be flown. Of course avoiding the approach paths to the runways would be a good idea too unless the commercials don't mind being delayed due to me putzing around. ;-)

Hammond really needs a tower. I've had to go around several times due to a sport pilot departing 36 with inbound IFR King Air and Falcons on the ILS 18. There have been a few times in Hammond where I just loitered outside of the pattern while the numbskulls got down on the ground. > When I was actively flying and also an active Amateur Radio Operator, I used > to operate "Air Mobile" some on 2 meters and 440.

I never really did make the leap to ham beyond a brief stint with 2m. It's fun hitting the cell towers with a Cingular card and a laptop though. Google earth at 110 knots?! Works that little cell card to death and I'm sure it drives the cell companies nuts. So... next time you have a dropped call on the interstate, look up. It might be me creating havoc. ;-)
