Here’s an update on one of the balloons we launched last Saturday from the HamFest.
It just woke up for the day a few minutes ago over China.

I have not been keeping up with that one.
Been watching Jerry’s N5EKO balloon, as well our frieds from Brenham as they just completed 1 trip around yesterday, and it’s already out in the Atlantic now.

Hey Walter,
Ron, K5TDF here, have you been tracking the balloon launched by KO6FE-12? It has really had a great trip so far. I didn't watch it from the start so I can't tell how many times it has been around the world. It appears that this might be it's second trip around. Is this correct?? I flew right over Beijing at 42,300ft. Ha ha ha! Wonder if they even saw it?
