You Said: I would think some care should be used to make sure that a balloon once captured by the Chinese or other nation, would not contain any proprietary software or encryption algorithms.just thinking out loud from a computer security point of view.
How on earth would you go about making sure this is not the case?? Do you have a a list or something?? I can't find one... Eddie (NU5K)

this actually brings up a good point, it is illegal to send devices with very current encryption to foreign nations, I know you would not think there is anything on a balloon that is privileged but there are many things installed on operating systems in the US that are not for export.

The Chinese have it and are going to clone. They are going to send in the clones.

Quick Update……
After several weeks of flight from the BVARC Field Day site, it appears we haven’t heard from the balloon in over a week now, so it’s probably down for the count.
It was certainly a very interesting flight with all the backwards trips it was making.😊
As we close the books on this one, we are already testing more trackers as I type, as well as testing a NEW tracking/reporting application script for extracting and propagating the information into all the formal reporting sites.
So much more to come. Below is a snapshot of the full flight.
Many thanks for allowing the South Texas Balloon Launch Team participate in Field Day with you guys.
All the best,
Walter/K5WH
