Done! Great to meet up at the meeting this evening.
We are GO for flight on August 26! I will try to add some payload updates to http://www.w5acm.net asap. We really got a lot done tonight. The digital video is fantastic. The second APRS unit is working superbly. The 360-degree camera is a fabulous addition… Here we go! Thanks Ravi! To The Edge of Space, Andy W5ACM STXBLT – Celebrating 27 Years at the Edge of Space!

I was involved in high-powered rocketry for years (NAR Level I, served as launch coordinator, RSO, etc), and was familiar with the waiver/call-in procedures back in the day (~20 years ago). You say it's easier now? Great! Please forward me the information, and I'll see y'all this evening. 73, KF5YHP Sent from my iPhone On Aug 16, 2017, at 12:12 AM, Andy via BVARC <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: BLT Members, We are down to the wire… Saturday, August 26th at the Wharton Intergalactic Spaceport! Thanks to Wharton and David Allen for so many years of support… Launch at 10 AM! < span style="color:#1F4E79;mso-style-textfill-fill-color:#1F4E79;mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha:100.0%">We have a BLT-49 construction meeting on Wednesday evening (8/16/17) at the Secret BLT Lab in Sugar Land. WA5TWT QTH 310 Lombardy 8 PM Talk in on 146.70 Repeater (103.5 Hz tone) What is ready to fly? It’s time to put it all together! Helium, Batteries, Payloads, Parachute, Predictions… Let’s Go! Also: As we approach the flight of BLT-49, we need a volunteer to handle communi cations with the FAA. This used to be a rather difficult job, but it is now MUCH easier. Kirk Kendrick KK2Z has done this for many flights now and has compiled an info doc file. If you would like to see the file, let me know and I will forward it to you. If you like what you see, volunteer and become the BLT FAA Wizard for BLT-49! If you find that you like the job, Kirk will transfer it to you, otherwise, he will resume after his vacation. It is exciting to become a pivotal and critical member of the BLT Launch Team… Think about it… Request the info doc file… Join us! To The Edge of Space!
