Amateur Radio Balloon Crosses The Pond (and the Continent)


Wow, congratulations to the California Near Space team. Their balloon flew from Silicon Valley, across the U.S., across the Atlantic and is now en route to Italy. As a former Azores APRS operator, I was pleased to see the APRS report from those islands. George, KJ6VU, of Sierra Radio Systems, was present for the launch.
