This is a great idea! I am having trouble getting ZOOM to download so I will join on the youtube channel. Thanks, Chuck, W2CSI
For those of you having trouble downloading the zoom client. I had to go here https://zoom.us/download to download it. Got it installed on my linux machine as well as my windows computer
It works fine on Linux except for Kali Linux, it seems to not work there, but that is obvious due to the nature of Kali.
Have Zoom on Laptop, Phone, Tablet and Desktop. I'll probably brain-fart and that will be the cause of missing anything.
