[Ground-station] Exhibit update - RF Hackers Sanctuary at DEFCON 30

[Michelle Thompson]

Greetings all!

Thank you to all the visitors today at the ORI exhibit at RF Hackers
Sanctuary. This is a village at DEFCON devoted to all things "Radio
Frequency". It is the home of a major Capture the Flag event, has an
excellent speaking track, and this year ORI was part of the exhibits along
with Kent Britain (PCB antennas) and Starlink (SpaceX).

We had over-the-air demos, a technical poster session, Q&A, project
workshop, and giveaways from 10am - 6pm.

Poster sessions for Ribbit, Libre Space Foundation Manifesto, ITAR/EAR
work, and AAAAA were all well received and sparked great conversations all
day.

We showed the last two remaining Trans-Ionospheric hackable conference
badges. Based on the interest and feedback, we should consider making
another round of these badges. They serve as an open source radio
peripheral as well as a decoration, and can be a fundraiser.

See the badge homepage here: https://www.openresearch.institute/badge/

Thank you to everyone that helped at the show and thank you to everyone
that helped to get us to the point where we have so many things to share
with the DEFCON community.
