ANNONCE BALLON UK ID IBMICL Sentinel1 le dimanche 19 juin 2016

Hi!

We're a group of Imperial College students, sending our first payload up with a 1600g Hwoyee balloon tomorrow (Sunday 18/06/2016). Unfortunately, our first launch try a few days ago, ended in vein as our supplier delivered the needed helium to the wrong address, twice (on two separate occasions). Thank you to all who were helping us listen and we’re sorry that our launch didn’t take place for such a disappointing reason. If you would be so kind as to help us track it again, we will be launching tomorrow from Churchill college in Cambridge at approximately 11:00 am. We would appreciate any help in tracking our payload, there'll be LORA 868 and 434, as well as RTTY 434 to listen to.

Payload details:

Payload ID IBMICLSentinel, RTTY, 434.250MHz, 850Hz shift, 300 baud, 8 N 2, SSDV and telemetry.

Payload ID Sky1LoRa, LoRa, 869.850MHz, "Mode 1" Implicit mode, Error coding 4:5, Bandwidth 20.8kHz, SF 6, Low data rate optimize off SSDV and telemetry.

Payload ID Sky2LoRa, LoRa, 434.750MHz, "Mode 1" Implicit mode, Error coding 4:5, Bandwidth 20.8kHz, SF 6, Low data rate optimize off SSDV and telemetry. Every 30 seconds Sky2LoRa listens for incoming transmissions for 10 seconds.

We're also hoping we'll be able to transmit tweets up to our payload for display on the on-board screen. So if you want your tweets to show up high above the clouds then please tweet us at @IBMICLSentinel with #tospace followed by your message, alternatively tweet us #gethelp to get a list of commands back!

Many thanks from the Project Edge Team!
