     * George has an introduction into cheaply receiving and decoding digital signals. 
     * Peter brings us the Making of AmateurLogic Downunder.
     * Tommy builds an Arduino Heads-Up display for use with rigs that have Cat ports and more.
     * Peter sends Tommy and George some Australian treats. See how they react to Vegemite.
