Just wanted to say hi to every and start the list discussion. First thing we should get a handle on is what sort of payloads are available that people want to...
I need to know if presenters will have written notes for me to publish. So far no presenter has given me notice. I'd like to make a copy of every presenter's...

Because of the number of balloon launching from GPSL and possible interference with local repeaters, I've started to put together a frequency plan. The list...
Packet, ATV, and Repeaters, Oh My! It looks like we're going to have more transmissions coming out of Manhattan on 6 July than NSA HQ. To prevent near space ...
Paul, Not sure if you saw my message from last week, but I already started the frequency list. It is posted in the Files sections. If you want Mark to track...
I can keep track of the various modes, frequencies, etc. I've gotten some input from Mike KD0FW off-list for his payload(s). I looked at KD7LMO's inputs in...
I saw your file. I didn't realize I was assigning a task already started. If yopu don't mind, I'd like to forward that to Mark. We'll add one more item to...
I've made the requested changes to the file and changed the name to reflect only the ANSR payloads. The file is in the Files section of the Yahoo group page. ...
One o more item needs to be added to the frequency coordination form. Please add if you can change frequencies and how easy. This won't be a problem for APRS,...
Are you sending up a tracker or are you getting a lift from someone? As far as the tracker, are you slotting your packets? And also at what times? Thanks, ...
I will tracking mine the hard way using direction finding equipment like we used in the early 1990's for now. I had a offer from ka0jlf to do APRS but that...
Paul, A less than timely response. My intent is to use our records listing as the backbone of my discussion paper. I will add my comments to each category ...

All: It's been an idea of mine to launch a zero-pressure balloon from here in Denver, and float it low (30-40k feet probably) from here to Manhattan KS, about...
I like the idea. I assume recovery crews here would send a series of DTMF tones to terminate the flight? One concern is the altitude of the flight. 30-40k...
The main thing that hits me about your idea is, the altitude you are talking is right in the jetways. I don't think you would get clearance for a flight plan ...
The discussion of Mean Zonal Winds (MZW) at http://users.crosspaths.net/~wallio/MZW.html helps us start planning toward a long distance mission (but lets plan...

Well in a month, I'll be crewing for the RAAM and will travel from Portland, OR to Pensacola, FL basically non-stop. It took Fabio a little over 9 days to ride...
Ralph, I'm planning to work on the GPSL logo again this weekend. However, when I search my PC in the classroom, I can't find the topo map you emailed. I may...
Yes, I am appraised that the 30-40k feet altitude I mention is 'right in the middle of the jetways', but I recently read "Around the World in 20 days" by ...
All of these "around-the-world" attempts were flying in the busy 15-35kft altitude range but they were using altitude encoded radar transponders and in...

Points well made, Ralph. I'll just leave the proposal on the table, see if we form a critical mass to move this project forward. My goal is not to break the...
I've designed a logo for GPSL but arranged to leave the diskette at home. I'll post it tomorrow. I'd like the motto for this year's GPSL to be, "100,000...
Paul is doing the vast majority of the work to put GPSL-2002 together so I will bow deeply to him and accept this motto. However, we should understand how...

I think most of us have the *ability* to get to 100,000 ft, but some of us have not tried very hard on most flights. The baseline for a 100kft effort, when...
Here's the logo (that I left at home yesterday). Feel free to use it, there is no copyright or anything like that (unless you plan to make a million bucks...
I have software that can make the conversion (XnView) but the CDR file is displaying with many gray line artifacts within the state outline that don't appear...
