Ways to participate from afar
- Track the payloads at https://amateur.sondehub.org/ (look for K5RWK, K5UTD, and KE5GDB-Wenet)
- Get in the log by making an FT-8 QSO with the balloon on 20m – callsign K5RWK
- Receive SSTV pictures in real-time – 432.5 MHz / Robot 36
- Make contacts through the DMR repeater – 441.0 CC1/TS1/TG99
- Decode our tracking payloads – “Horus Binary v2” on 432.6, 432.7, and 432.9 MHz (decode using upper sideband and Horus GUI or https://horus.sondehub.org)
- Watch live images stream in via Wenet at https://ssdv.habhub.org/KE5GDB
We hope to see you at the launch or hear you on the DMR repeater!
