As you know for the past 4 years we have been providing electronics and software free of charge for the installation of ATOM ground stations in the UK and Europe.
This has been brilliant in that we now have over 300 sites installed all contributing to ATOM GRID and Sky GRID.
At the moment we have lots of Radio bridges etc but Raspberri Pi's are like gold dust and unavailable on the open market. So we don't have any to give away.
On the other hand, we have lots of folks who want to install ATOM stations to get the advantage of the best VRS available today.
So here is the ask, do you have a Pi 2B or 3B spare that you would like to donate to the cause.
We will then be able to refurbish and recycle them to provide greater cover in UK and Europe.
In exchange, we will add 2 years license fee to your existing Rosetta or classic unit for each unit that passes the refurbishing process in February..
If you can help please drop us a line at atom@pilotaware.com
Thanks

Where do we send them?
I've got 3 X RPi2 Model B. 2 should be fine but one PCB wired connections needs a check.
They are gratis.

I have a Pi 2 Model B V1.1 (and also a Pi Model B+V1.2 in case it has any possible use).
