Nick, The flight will have three identical trackers.  They're all APRS "Peach" trackers, originally designed by Alan Adamson, W7QO, though built by me and some Cornell students.  They're running

A nice compact little squad of four pico balloons just passed Nantucket Island. Traveling with speeds now in excess of 40 MPH. W5KUB-3 trailing those of the Dayton Amateur Radio Association's trio

Launched earlier this morning from Dayton. W5KUB also doing live streaming high quality video/audio of Dayton at W5KUB.com

I guess it's a pico balloon. Or it's a perfect floater. Consistently been doing 30 MPH. Lined up perfectly for a grand tour of Long Island. Passed right over Manhattan with laser

Mike, When you say a "tracker" can we assume that includes a GPS, APRS processor like a TinyTrack3, a transmitter of some power (we chased a 50 mw transmitter once that was a giant waste of time),

Be sure to listen to the latest QSO Today podcast #250 for Bill Brown, WB8ELK. Great hour interview on his journey in HAB.. www.qsotoday.com 73, mike

Gang, I'm intending to reprise a launch of the payload we launched at Cornell a few weeks back.  It features a DTMF triggered secondary payload release (the last one was a little Cornell Big Red

I didn’t get the SuperLaunch website updated this week with this link, but you can register your balloon now for

MOHAB Mike KD0MEQ and John KE0UIU Flying a TinyTrak at :55 Paul V. will also have a payload on our string. He will email you his timeslot.

Sorry that conflicts prevent us from coming to Pella this June. However, I want to invite members of the ARHAB community to consider conducting a high balloon flight on July 20 to celebrate the 50th

Not yet...so far I only know of 2 groups planning to fly... As I get more info on who plans to fly on Saturday, I will start planning time slots... Looking forward to seeing you in June! mike

Hey Gang, Do we have plans afoot for time slots on APRS for the GPSL launch? Mike / KD2EAT

I like regular aprs...if my mapping pgm goes kaput, I can see lat/long in the raw packets... mike

I only use APRS, I never use MIC-E,

Hi all, I'm programming up my TinyTrak3 for GPSL2019. For a balloon, is it better to use regular APRS encoding or Mic-E? In the TinyTrak programming I see that you can select different MIC-E WIDE-X

Where are you getting your H2 from, Last I bought was 29 bucks and checked 2 weeks ago. Joe WB9SBD The Original Rolling

I will double up with you. I can bring a balloon. I will launch another balloon with Mike.

Looks like I'll be solo again this year. If someone wants to split a balloon/gas, I can provide the rest (trackers, parachute, regulator, rigging, etc). Zack Clobes, W0ZC Project:
