I'm interested in APRS, but haven't had a ham ticket since 1976 when my general lapsed and I sold all my radios (electric guitars and girls had a serious impact on my radio involvement at the time). N...

This is a Linux/Apache/PHP site and is largely built on PHPNuke for the basic content management... The forum module is called PHPbb. If you've any experience working with PHP code, definitely give me...

I'm talking about more professional grade stuff. The camera's I've seen run about $100 or a little bit more. Warren

I'll take a look at that Conway, but it's buried deep in the commercial code that runs the forums. I know it's possible, but finding out where in the code it is could take some time. Warren

In High Power Rocketry I believe, I saw an article about radio controlled rocket recovery by chute steering... I'll dig those out today and track down the article for you. Warren

Lipstick cameras John? I've seen 'em, have a source for them too but don't have it handy. I'll try to track it down and post it later today or this week. They're even smaller than you're talking about...

Sanding and painting is ALWAYS the reason my projects are late or don't fly when I intend. Warren

The current version of the flight computer product I'm playing with developing talks via bluetooth to my mobile phone. One of the options will be text messaging GPS data, altitude, temperature and acc...

You're dreamin'.... while SOME folks are able to get coverage (Joe Hinton is one) WHEN at the top of the hill, I know of no one with coverage reliable enough to receive calls. Occasionally, you can ma...

Well, I think you'll find your issue is primarily the rod you launched off of. I fly my Io off a 1/4" rod all the time and while sometimes a little rod whip occurs, it's not a big deal. The club 1/4" ...

I've been thinking of coming down to Hartsel - just to check it out. I've got a couple birds I can fly. Maybe I can car pool down with John Wilke or something. What's the Hartsel waiver and window wai...

Bob Messner made an Icarus flight at MHM - at least he paid for one, but I never heard the results... Warren Musselman

Personally I think we need a test flight before we determine the final rules for the contest... I want to see what an "average" rocket with an H999 does to an egg yolk. Warren

You may be right... I'm just going with the common sense view that a solid object floating in a liquid will move within the liquid under acceleration. Warren Musselman

I'm surprised at you Chris - floatation only will occur at rest - the egg as a unit will sink under thrust. I was guessing it would float - ideally there will be neutral boyancy. I sense an experiment...
