Hello all!

At our next meetup (RSVP [here](https://www.meetup.com/digital-east/events/240606967/) ) we will be assembling and programming the basic sensor node as per the workshop published [here](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/labs/story/creating-a-ttn-node).

There will be a charge of £10 if you want to build and own a sensor. Places are limited so that attendees get the time, space and guidance to learn. I have over ordered the PCB quantity so if you want to bring your own bits, ie you already have the 3.3V Pro mini Arduino (check version in link above, a newer pro mini has different pin holes) and RFM95W, you can have a PCB to use (while stocks last!).

This promises to be a great session.

I will prepare some PCB in advance so that those learning to solder for the first time aren't overly challenged by the task - making it yourself is so important!!

I look forward to seeing you on the 4th.
