ANNONCES BALLONS

Hi all,

We decided to do a last minute launch of a foil balloon from the southern part of Holland. Check the link to the post below for DX info (launch was planned last friday):

Happy tracking :)

I was lucky to see your message just in time.
That was a strange type of modulation. It should have been FM as I remember from you first message past Friday, but it was not possible to decode the signal in FM. It has no carrier so it looked more like DSB modulation with a lot of RTTY lines and products from it. I have set my receiver on USB mode and used just two of the many lines with a shift of 240Hz.
