Had a great time with W9YJ-11 balloon launch. Thanks to who ever posted
the info on the
Amsat BB. I am the station in Fond du Lac, WI. EN53ss that made several
contacts through the
balloon repeater after it got above 50,000 ft. When it got to about
98,000 ft. at its peak,
I had my Sat. antenna
I also caught the DePaul University HALO-II launch this morning (July 20) from
Kankakee, IL due to the
APRS beacon on board .. when I saw the Icon on my TM-D710 (somebody thank
WB4APR for the thousandth time for this jewel).
No announcement seen, this balloon appears to have NO X-band repeater
I listened for the W9JY-11 balloon on APRS, and for the 446.025 crossband
repeater, and heard nothing... did it actually go up yesterday?
George, KA3HSW
