flying APRS as KD2AUC-1 and using a House symbol. Currently about 180
miles off the coast of <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Massachusetts</st1:place></st1:State>
at 106,554 feet and moving very slowly. Putting out a 402 mile radius
footprint from that altitude, so there should be APRS tracking for a while
longer.<br>

Supposed to be CW. See <a

<br>
During the flight amateurs worldwide are encouraged to monitor the N2XE CW
telemetry beacons at 7.1023 and 10.1466 MHz. The balloon is also equipped with
an APRS beacon at 144.39 MHz using the call sign KD2AUD. <br>

But I have heard nothing on HF. Are those published freqs the carrier or
dial freqs? Is it CW or packet? <br>
