It does. However sometimes packets get garbled, GPS lock can be lost, etc.
Knowing how to perform RDF in such situations can be the difference between recovering your rocket and not. -Kevin From: altusmetrum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Winton H. E.

Just get the dongle and attach to laptop (or even android device I believe now?)

The Baofung (or however it's spelled) radios can be bought cheap, but based on what I've seen of them, they'll make RDF a bit more challenging. I'd suggest investing in a used radio of better quality if you plan to RDF with it. -Kevin From: altusmetrum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chris Attebery Sent: Monday, June 15, 2015 7:01 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [altusmetrum] RDF on the cheap I'd like to be able to RDF my Telemetrum with a low end HT and antenna. Can any of you make a recommendation for a low end radio (<$50)? Also will the Arrow 440-3 work well enough at Black Rock or should I pick up the 440-5? Is there anything else I would need?
