WB4APR: I'm trying to keep up with the path discussion here. I've previously flown balloon-borne APRS xmitters on 144.39 with your recommended "WIDE" path. Even though most of the balloon tracking team will get direct line of sight reception, the single "WIDE", to get a lateral shot when the tracking team is 'nulled' directly under the balloon. Is the "WIDE" still a good choice ? Or, "WIDE1-1" ? Or, "W1-1" ? The long time local club high altitude balloon club here in Denver had a winter fun flight lined up yesterday with FIVE, count em FIVE, aprs transmitters (many undergoing experimental check out) on the flight string. But the FAA shut us down as there was too much cloudcover. It may fly next Saturday. And don't worry, only one is on 144.39. - KMC ng0x (ng0x-11 at high altitude is Wx balloon, ng0x-11 at low altitude is my hot air balloon.)
