The next meeting of the Midland Amateur Radio Club will be held Thursday, June 6 at 7:30pm. This meeting is open to all members and non-members alike. This month’s presentation will be: May the Forth Be With You by Dennis Klipa, N8ERF.
Dennis, his students and an assortment of volunteers successfully launched a weather balloon, tracked it, and successfully retrieved it on May 4. Learn about the aspects of creating a payload of electronics, filling a balloon, and tracking it to 100,000 feet as the balloon drifts across the state. No Canadians were harmed in the flight. View pictures that were taken by a GoPro camera installed in the payload.
Can’t make it to the meeting in person? This talk will be better in-person, but you can participate via an online video conference.
