Where does it say that? You might be looking at the page for one of
our previous repeater launches.<br>

IRLP node 6214 is down at the moment.<br>

linking it to one of the Adelaide IRLP reflectors so that a

Horus planning high altitude balloon launch forApril 15th with
APRS and FM Voice</div>

<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">Folks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here is a preliminary heads up, the
Project Horus group in South Australia are planning on
launching a balloon during the WIA Field Days event on
Sunday April 15<sup>th</sup>. Lift-off is planned for
sometime just after the WIA broadcast (say around
10.30-11.00am ACST).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Horus 23 is planned to be a combined FM
Voice repeater and APRS flight – using the new club callsign
VK5ARG-11 on APRS. The FM voice repeater will be a 70cm
uplink / 2m downlink crossband system, like the one we flew
on Horus 9. The frequencies for the voice system will be
confirmed and released shortly. (Just checking some
intermod/desense stuff first). The usual 300baud RTTY
telemetry payload will also fly (434.650 at this stage will
be the beacon channel).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Plans at this stage these are still
subject to the weather. With this payload, we will only
release the balloon if it is going to safely land in the
Mallee east of Adelaide, so looking from this far out, it is
possible that the mission could be scrubbed. Having said
that, we are quietly confident, and are commencing launch
preparations on the assumption we will get to fly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When at apogee, at 20-50W 70cm uplink
should be able to access the repeater from up to 800km away
from the balloon so contacts across a large portion of
central SE Australia should be possible. The 2m downlink
should be easily audible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
