  • We launch a weather balloon and try to reach it before it lands. We thought it would be interesting to see how hard it is to launch a high altitude balloon and understand why there is such a buzz around the Chinese Spy Balloons.

    There are a lot of comments asking about rules and regulations on launching your own weather balloon. Here is a link to a site with the pertinent information: launchwithus.com/lwu-blog/2016/01/21/high-altitude-weather-balloon-laws-and-regulations The site also contains links to the FAA regulations.

    • @marklar7551
      @marklar7551 Год назад +1

      There are other means of communication outside HAM radio, and you do need permission to launch due to air traffic in certain places. Fun fact, when a balloon reaches the limits of our atmosphere it flattens like a pancake and then explodes.

    Years ago while on a transmitter hunt. We found the weather data radio of a weather balloon it was in middle of a thick forest. about 12' up in a tree. But was sending enough of a signal still that it was interfering with a 430 MHZ hidden transmitter. I may still have a part or two of that tiny transmitter as we were gonna retune it and use it as a hidden t radio.
