I sent this out to the BVARC reflector yesterday for images and links to the ones in flight.

Many thanks to everyone for putting together such a great HamFest, and can’t wait for it to come back around next year.

 

 

Here’s a few tracker shots of the balloons we launched today from the Greater Houston Hamfest.

We’ll be watching them for the days to come to how they hold up.
