Capture the Flag (CTF)
We've invited a very talented group of high school students to create this years CTF competition for ShmooCon Epilogue. Are you smarter than a high schooler? Come find out. (The expectation is this will be a great learning CTF and hope that people of all skill levels will find it fun. While CTFs are generally competitive, we hope this will also be a great learning experience for all participants.)
HAM Radio Training and Tests
One of the Nova Hackers members will be offering a training in the morning from 9am to noon that will cover all of the questions (and answers) you will face in getting a HAM Radio Technician license.
In the afternoon, thanks to the generous help of the HAMs from HacDC (@hacdc), we will be having exams at Epilogue for getting your Technician license or upgrading to General or Extra. The tests will take place from 2pm to 5pm and the cost for the test will be $15 cash/check ONLY (not included in admission), which goes to the ARRL.
