I plan to fly my SSSS on Saturday. Is there anyone that would be willing to track my rocket for me? I've never used one of those things but I'd really like to get this rocket back. If for any reason the rocket isn't recovered, I would certainly pay to replace any of the tracking equipment that is lost with it. Thanks.
SSS contest allows NO tracking of any kind whatsoever. You can track the SSSS on the J350, but not the G80 Single Shot Sweepstakes.

Sorry, I left an "S" off. This is indeed for the J350 contest. Hoping for somewhere in the neighborhood of 12K on a slightly modified PML Cirrus.
Hey Batman, you can use mine, though I'll have to give you some on-the-job training. I broke my foot (and walked about 5 miles on it at BALLS) and I'm on a very short leash. Do you have room in the cone for the transmitter? The antenna is *very* delicate and just tossing it into the aiframe will not work. You can call me 515.956.2344 if you have questions, or email me at iflyrockets (at) mchsi dot com
If I can help, I'm glad to do so.

No, no room in the cone. I thought that the transmitters were supposed to be attached to the recovery harness. If that is not the case, I'm screwed. The payload bay is pretty full of electronics, and I didn't really allocate space for anything else.
