Hi Doesn't look like VA5BNC-15 is going make another miraculous recovery today. Not surprising as the surface winds at touch down were in the 30 km/h range. Looks like the nearest APRS stations are 40

Wow....It took off again !! It Must've needed to get some sleep last night :-) I will alert the potential GA recovery folks to regroup. - Bill WB8ELK -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Coates <bru

Hi It looks like VA5BNC-15 started descending at about 01:00 UTC at a pretty constant rate of about 70 feet per minute. At this rate it will be on the ground in eastern Georgia by about 06:00 UTC. The

Hi Bruce, I believe I have your signal spotted OK in the waterfall display along with all the other APRS signals on 144.390. Yours appears to have a large 300 to 500 msec TxD keydown before sending th

Nice signal on VA5BNC-15 from 200 miles distance as it flies towards me. Copying it direct on 144.390 MHz and i-Gating it here. I also see K7HAK-11 in the waterfall at 300 miles distance but too weak

I've attached one frame from the horizontal camera recording the burst at 98,331 feet. The rest of the images are near infrared images taken during the flight. The near-infrared, healthy foliage shows

Thanks to all for a great GPSL 2020! I woke up this morning with this weird feeling that I was in a motel room and I had to drive home. ;)

For those of you in EOSS territory, KK6UUQ-7 is in RF range of Denver. It transmits on 144.390 MHz APRS every 2 minutes and then 10 seconds later on a clear channel of 144.340 MHz. -Bill WB8ELK

The twentieth Great Plains Super Launch (Coronavirus edition) is about to begin! Here's our latest speakers list, along with links to YouTube videos they'll be presenting. Plan to have the link ready

I have done a custom map to help make the recovery of the KM6BWB Friday latex balloon go quickly and easily. Last APRS was south of Bakersfield, CA. Sent a couple of emails containing the mapping to t
