This can be used to make contacts on the 2.4\nGHz amateur band in contests such as the\n[ARRL June VHF Contest](http://www.arrl.org/june-vhf).\n\n## Building a bootable USB flash drive\n\nInstall the dependencies:\n\n* qemu-utils\n* qemu-system-x86\n\nRun the following:\n```\n./create.sh\n```\nThis will generate a disk image (`contest-irc.img`), which can be flashed to a\nUSB drive:\n```\nsudo dd if=contest-irc.img of=/dev/sdb bs=4M\n```\n\nOr, convert the image to a VirtualBox VDI:\n```\nVBoxManage convertfromraw --format VDI contest-irc.img contest-irc.vdi\n```\n\n## Usage\n\nBoot from the flash drive or VDI and double click the \"Hexchat\" icon on the\ndesktop. This will automatically join the chat room.\n\nFrom another laptop or smartphone, connect to the VE3WCC access point. Then\nlaunch a web browser and visit http://10.42.0.1/. Enter your call sign in\nthe \"Nickname\" field and click \"Start...\" to join the chat room.\n\n## License\n\nCopyright 2017-2024 Clayton Smith\n\nThis file is part of contest-irc\n\ncontest-irc is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify\nit under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by\nthe Free Software Foundation; either version 3, or (at your option)\nany later version.\n\ncontest-irc is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,\nbut WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of\nMERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
