#radiosonde — Public Fediverse posts

We got a reprogrammed RS-41 radiosonde working with our ground station today:

A different one failed to be received on our last weather balloon launch by the #Villanova #CubeSat Club the other week.

That was an amazing high altitude weather balloon flights yesterday by the #Villanova University #CubeSat Club!

Here is the dashboard summary of the flight from Sondehub.org:

#Villanova University students will be launching two high altitude balloons Wednesday May 3 around midday. We will have #APRS & GPS trackers, live #SSTV images, & a #radiosonde! #AMSAT #STEM #CubeSatSim #W3YP #HAB

I will post links to the trackers here so anyone can follow along. If you are a ham or have an SDR or scanner in the Philadelphia/New Jersey area, I’ll post the frequencies so you can listen.

Wish us luck! 🎈📡👍🏻😁

Here is my current #radiosonde setup. One SDR is 'missing' as it was installed/in use at the time of this photo, so this is the 4 #SDR upgrade that we did a few weeks back.
Just want to test the orange dongles with their inbuilt LNAs to scratch an itch.
Don't need the gain really and most times, more gain is always worse.
I have 3 of the new #nooelec v5's coming soon. They will be the real test.
Screenshot of tracking 3 sondes at once and the Vegas one is a nice distance.
