Chicken! We sent up the real ring and retrieved it. I haven’t asked how much the ring was worth. There was enough pressure just making sure we retrieved the payload. I blew out a calf muscle walking in to the field to retrieve the payload. Just about needed to have the ring owner come out and carry me back to my truck!

Garrett, Mark
I was wondering how it was being tracked as it lacked that information in the article. Mark

I'm guessing it wasn't ham radio as his name is not associated with a callsign. But he could have a friend who does that. 73 de Mark N9XTN
