Hi Everybody,<br>
<br>
This is the only video I shot during the flight. I meant to do
something with a little more depth, but got wound up in the action.
I was set up on Greenpatch Hill out of Port Lincoln with Tony VK5RF.<br>

<br>
I was decoding and uploading the telemetry using the IC-706MK2G,
monitoring the APRS tracker (my iGate at home caught at least one
APRS frame) on my HamHUD II and listening to the cross-band
repeater. I was able to work the repeater using an Icom IC-91AD
handheld radio and hand held Yagi antenna in addition to the vehicle
mounted IC-2820H. I was also able to hear the telemetry on a hand
held Icom IC-R10 receiver.<br>
<br>
It was a fantastic flight... well done guys.<br>
<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">A quick update – Horus 23 should lift off
sometime around 11am ACST this morning. Predictions have the
flight lasting 2.5hrs and flying 80km down range in an
easterly direction from Mt Barker. We hope to hit at least
30km altitude so the radio horizon should reach Melbourne.<o:p></o:p></p>
