Three high altitude balloon launches will take place from a site in Welshpool on Thursday, 21 June 2018, conditions permitting.<\/p>\n
Starting between 10.30 and 11.30am, the balloons will have a number of experiments on board to look at various aspects of space flight.<\/p>\n
Involving a number of schools in the north west, the launches are by a team from Hi-Impact Consultancy, based on the Wirral, as part of their SpaceCamp event, and take place in association with AirProducts UK.<\/p>\n
The organisers ask as many amateurs and SWLs to get involved and track the flight using FL-DIGI.<\/p>\n
The balloons will transmit on 434.650MHz USB with call sign SPACECAMP.<\/p>\n
They use 50 baud RTTY, 450Hz shift, 7N2.<\/p>\n
