So do they have a control link, or are they operating with no control?
On another list it was mentioned that they use the 10 MHz band for control purposes.
They apparently are using a Small Wonder Labs QRP transceiver and the onboard microcomputer decodes CW commands.

CR8ABA in the Azores successfully commanded the payload to be dropped when the balloon was at 46.947N 26.787W.
