At the recent Mason-Dixon Hamfest ...
THE HIGH DRAMA of the balloon lift experiments and the ear-splitting interference on the downlink frequency competed ferociously to scrub our flight, but perseverance paid off. Big time! Not only did we achieve our mission objectives, not only did we soar to near space well above and beyond our goal altitude, but we set a national ARHAB record -- 1st Place -- in a special category as well.
We all have stories to tell!
And many of you to thank.
And a public to tell.
So, we will hold a "CarrollSat-2 Debrief and Lessons Learned Meeting" soon and you are invited. Mark your calendar for Saturday afternoon, November 20, 2010 starting at 2:00 P.M. in Carroll County.
Go to http://simsat.net/carrollsat/ for details and directions.
Can you make it?
Hope to see you then!
Cheers,
Pat Kilroy, N8PK SimSat P.I.
