Added by edit.... I also decoded it on 30M

I have also now installed & running the modified WSJT-X. I have ticked the Telemetry & Location box's and also enabled PSK reporting in the setup however the last decodes I got since doing all this do not appear to have gone to the tracker page. Have I missed something ??
Nothing different from previous trip, it is a standard party foil balloon. The weather plays a huge part at these relatively low altitudes, so I guess it was the right condition.VK1JA wrote:And she's still going !
Andy - just wondering if you did anything different to this balloon compared to the previous ones? Did you spray the balloon with special UV protection, different gas used, different balloon type altogether?
It's been up in the air for a lot longer than the previous ones - apart from the encounter with bad weather of previous balloons !!!
Hi Douglas,VK4ADC wrote:while you are answering that one, could you include some description of the antenna arrangements on the HF-version balloons ?
I am sure that some photos of the balloon, radio gear, solar charging bits plus antenna would be of interest to the many who, like me, have been following the progress of the various balloons.
We will have to wait for it to finish the current curl up in the gulf to see where it goes next

I am listening on 14.095.60, just want to confirm the RX on WSJT-X should be 1800 as shown.
